Fiber Optical Amplifiers EDFA
The EDFL serials of erbium-doped fiber amplifier features a very short latency for applications which require minimum signal delay. The EDFL is built using semiconductor lasers, WDM, isolator, and erbium-doped fiber. The product has the advantages of high reliability, high power output, high gain, and low noise. Two configurations are available: A preamplifier for slight optical signal amplification and a Booster amplifier for maximum output power. We make both random polarization and polarization maintain versions. It has several package configuration choices. A Benchtop unit that is preset at the highest gain is suited for laboratory use. The Benchtop has a computer control interface and GUI. The compact module is suited for system integration with the universal control interface.

Application context
Application guidance is tied to the configured wavelength, fiber interface and optical-budget fields for this family.
EDFA Amplifiers: Low Latency: Laboratory optical integration depends on preserving the optical budget through the complete path. The C Band wavelength specification sets source and detector compatibility. The fiber/interface entry (1.0m) must match the connected components.

Technical FAQ
Fiber Length: 1.0m · Connector: None, FC/APC, Special. Specify connector polish and fiber architecture together. FC/PC, FC/APC and SMA interfaces, and single-mode, multimode and polarization-maintaining fibers, impose different return-loss, mode-field and alignment requirements.
Wavelength: C Band. Check the Fiber Optical Amplifiers EDFA passband, insertion loss, return loss and power handling at the actual source wavelength; a nominal telecom-band label is not a substitute for the configured range.
Control Mode: APC, ACC, CC. Match supply voltage, analog or digital command range, connector pinout and default optical state to the instrument interlock. Confirm the unpowered state explicitly — it decides what happens to the link on a power failure.
Share your wavelength, fiber type, connector, power handling and control requirements and we will qualify the matching configuration and part number.
