Erbium-doped Fiber Amplifiers (EDFA) and Dispersion Compensation Modules (DCM)
Olson Technology's  EDFA's and DCM's extend optical transmission distances for medium-haul and long-haul optical networks. The EDFA's may be ordered as a single stage device or a dual stage device with mid-stage access, which accommodates a DCM to minimize distortion for fiber runs longer than 100km as well as multiple output, very high power EDFA's. Contact Olson Technology, Inc. for assistance in designing long-haul systems.

OTEA-CO-B Series 1RU EDFA Model OTEA-CO EDFA

OTEA-CO-B Series EDFA Front and Rear Views

The OTEA-CO-B Series One-, Two- Three- or Four-Output 1550nm EDFA is a 1RU rack mount EDFA package producing up to +26dBm total optical output power. It is engineered to meet the requirements of a high-density solution for the large-scale distribution of broadband CATV video (and/or wideband L-Band video) and data signals to traditional CATV HFC nodes in the field or to video overlay receivers in a FTTH/FTTP or PON system.

OTEA-CO-M EDFA With Mid-stage Access Model OTEA-CO-M EDFA

OTEA-CO-M Series EDFA Front and Rear Views

The Model OTEA-CO-M Series EDFA works with 1550nm hybrid fiber-coax (HFC) networks to increase transmission distance. The unit accepts optical inputs from -5 to +10dBm and provides stable output power from +16 to +25dBm. The EDFA provides low noise figure (<5dB) and excellent environmental stability. The OTEA-CO-M Series includes two rear panel optical connections for the insertion of a dispersion compensation module (DCM) such as the Model OT-DCM or OT-DCM-F. Unless otherwise specified, all OTEA-CO-M Series EDFA's are optimized for Olson OT-DCM 100km DCM's.

OTEA-CL Series 1RU and 2RU High Power EDFA Model OTEA-CL EDFA

OTEA-CL Series EDFA Front and Rear Views

The OTEA-CL Series 1RU and 2RU high power 1550nm EDFA is a rack mount EDFA package producing up to four (4) to 24 optical outputs at +18dBm to +22dBm each. The 1RU package can be used for up to eight (8) outputs and a total power of 800mW (+29dBm). The 2RU package can provide up to 24 outputs and a total power of 3,200mW (+35dBm). It is engineered to meet the requirements of a high-density solution for the very large scale distribution of broadband CATV video (and/or wideband multi-channel L-Band video) and data signals to traditional HFC nodes or CATV/L-Band video overlay receivers in a FTTH/ FTTP  or PON system. The LaserLite Model OTEA-CL-Series erbium doped fiber amplifier is the perfect companion to Olson’s LaserPlus, LaserLite and SatellitePlus families of 1550nm EM and DM transmitters and the MetroNode, PremiseNode and SatellitePlus families of receiver/nodes. It is also designed to operate seamlessly with optical transmitters, receivers and nodes from most leading manufacturers. Note: The OTEA-CL Series is not recommended for use with Olson's TO-1000HH/HJ SuperMod Optical Transmitter.

OTEA-CM Series 2RU High Power EDFA for Direct Mod Transmitters Model OTEA-CM EDFA

OTEA-CM Series EDFA Front and Rear Views

The OTEA-CM Series 2RU high power 1550nm EDFA is a rack mount EDFA package producing up to 20 optical outputs at +18dBm to +21dBm, each optimized to work with direct modulation 1550nm transmitters. The EDFA design provides eight (8) outputs to 20 outputs in a 2RU package over a wide temperature range with low power consumption. The total optical output equals 2,500mW/+34dBm. It is engineered to meet the requirements of a high-density solution for the very large scale distribution of broadband CATV video (and/or wideband multi-channel L-Band video. The LaserLite Model OTEA-CM-Series erbium doped fiber amplifier is the perfect companion to Olson’s LaserPlus, LaserLite and SatellitePlus families of 1550nm DM transmitters and the MetroNode, PremiseNode and SatellitePlus families of receiver/nodes. It is also designed to operate seamlessly with direct mod optical transmitters, receivers and nodes from most leading manufacturers.

OT-DCM Series Dispersion Compensation Module (DCM) Model OT-DCM Dispersion Compensation Module

OT-DCM Series DCM Front View

 

The OT-DCM Dispersion Compensation Module removes distortion from optical signals in analog and digital systems that use standard SMF-28 fiber over long fiber runs. The Dispersion Compensation Module cancels out the fiber’s positive dispersion, increasing transmission distance and enhancing the signal fidelity. The unit may be ordered for use with FC/APC or SC/APC connectors. Models are available in 20km, 40km, 60km, 80km and 100km compensation lengths.
