About the Product

The Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) is designed to plug into PBN's latest generation Advanced Intelligent Multi-services Access platform - the AIMA3000.

PBN's AIMA3000 EDFA module works in conjunction with 1550 nm optical transmitter modules to meet client requirements for different environments and transmission distances.

The EDFA employs a highly reliable pump laser with an advanced design to ensure that the unit can achieve a very low noise profile and high pump efficiency. The unit uses single or dual-pump lasers designed with inter-stage isolators. Its output power ranges from 13 dBm (19.95 mW) to 24 dBm (251.18 mW). The EDFA supports a fixed gain setting for dense wave division multiplexing (DWDM) applications as well as a number of user-selectable output ports.

With the optional embedded Full Band Capture (FBC) module, it enables the operator to capture and monitor the spectrum and QAM demodulation data, including level of each channel, SNR, MER, BER, constellation and so on. Operators can get the metric of each QAM channel remotely.

The EDFA can also be conveniently monitored and controlled through a computer connected to one of the Ethernet ports or an Android mobile device via the ASMM module.

  • Plug-and-play AIMA platform optical signal amplifier
  • Suits 1550 nm DWDM applications
  • Adjustable optical outputs for dynamic link configurations
  • Low noise profile and gain flattening
  • Suitable for large scale FTTx deployment
  • Automatic power control (APC) for a consistent optical output power (A-EDFA-x-x-P-x only)
 
  • Automatic Gain Control (AGC) for maintaining a consistent amount of power amplification for each wavelength (A-EDFA-x-x-G-x only)
  • Automatic thermo-cooler control (ATC) for a consistent laser temperature
  • Remote firmware upgrade and auto upload/download of configuration files through ASMM web interface or using PBN's NMSE
  • Bulk firmware updates through PBN's NMSE
  • Fully FCC, CE and RCM compliant
