Gain modules · technical draft

High-output erbium fibre amplifier modules

Embedded erbium-doped gain modules with separately specified booster and preamplifier performance.

  • 200 x 130 x 28 mm package
  • 29 dBm standard; 27 dBm gain-flat limits
  • Booster and preamplifier configurations

Choose the optical mode and operating band first, then review mechanical fit, polarization, electrical control and the acceptable input-power range. A booster and a preamplifier need different noise and gain acceptance criteria.

Configuration options

Each row is a separate configuration. Limits from different rows must not be combined.

Integration and delivery

Integration
Embedded electronics; PM or non-PM optical options
Electrical and optical interfaces
RS232 or RS485 and connectors depend on the selected module; confirm pinout and optical delivery

Conditions and configuration notes

  • The selected operating band is narrower than the overall family wavelength coverage; the bandwidth entry describes the individual configuration.
  • ACC: automatic current control; APC: automatic power control; AGC: automatic gain control.

Applications to discuss

  • Optical instrument integration
  • Optical sensor amplification
