Overview
Fiber Driver® EM316EDFA modules provide a multi-function, low-
noise, Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) solution ideal for
metro Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) as well
as single wavelength distance extension applications.
The EM316EDFA-BR, EM316EDFA-SBR, and EM316EDFA-LPR are
part of the Fiber Driver optical multi-service platform solution
family. The EM316EDFA-BR and EM316EDFA-SBR are optical
boosters that extend transmission range. The EM316EDFA-LPR
may be either an in-line repeater or a pre-amplifier that can
strengthen weak signals, optionally extending the link range
as well. By performing two functions, the EM316EDFA-LPR also
reduces some inventory requirements.
The EM316EDFA modules employ a state-of-the-art optical design
and sophisticated control circuitry. This technology provides
constant gain even when wavelengths are added or dropped in
the network. Any fluctuations caused by wavelength filtering are
handled by ultra-fast transient suppression.
