EDFAM - Erbium Doped Fibre Amplifier Module - for OCMR
The Erbium Doped Fibre Amplifier Module (EDFAM) has been designed
for MATV, CATV, FTTH and CCTV broadband applications. The EDFAM
module forms part of the Light Link® Series 3 family of products.
This module utilises plug-and-play technology to provide a complete
broadband and optical communications solution.
The output power available is from 20 mW to 250 mW (13 dBm to
24 dBm).
For output power up to 80 mW, a single pump laser is used.
The larger EDFAM units employ dual-pump lasers in a two-stage design
with inter-stage isolators.
Light Link® Series 3 is designed to extend a 1550 nm CATV system
fibre without need to convert back to RF. Combined with our LTE152
externally modulated laser transmitters, system ranges of up to
100 km are possible.
The larger power EDFAM units find application in Fibre-to-the-Home
(FTTH) systems, permitting many thousands of subscriber nodes to
be supplied with signal from a single laser source.
