The
Olson Technology, Inc. Model OTEA-CO-M Series
1550nm Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier is a 1RU high,
rack-mount EDFA package designed to allow dispersion compensation to be added to long fiber spans. It is engineered
to meet the requirements for a high-density solution for the distribution of broadband CATV video.
The
Model OTEA-CO-M Series
provides a convenient means of performing dispersion compensation in a system
incorporating very long fiber runs. The OTEA-CO-M series can be thought of as two EDFA’s in one box. The
dispersion compensation is typically inserted between the two amplifier stages.
This rugged, low-profile, high-efficiency EDFA design utilizes reliable pump lasers for maximum reliability. The unit’s
wide optical input range accepts a single optical input (0dBm to +6dBm) and provides a total composite/saturated
output power from +16dBm/40mW to 310mW/+25dBm, depending upon the desired configuration.
The
LaserLite
Model OTEA-CO-M Series
erbium doped fiber amplifier is the perfect companion to the Olson
LaserPlus
and
LaserLite
families of 1550nm EM and DM transmitters and
MetroNode
and
PremiseNode
families
of receiver/nodes. It is also designed to operate seamlessly with optical transmitters, receivers and nodes from most
leading manufacturers.

(In CATV applications, no more than 16-19 dBm launch level per fiber
should be launched into the fiber to avoid excessive Stimulated Brillouin
Scattering (SBS). SBS can negatively impact link CNR and CSO perfor-
mance. The exact limit is set by the optical transmitter being used.
