The Optilab SOA-1550-BP is a semiconductor optical amplifier with high fiber-to-fiber gain, designed to be used in general applications to increase optical launch power to compensate for loss of other optical devices, or as a broadband ASE source. For increased utility, the SOA-1550-BP can be ordered with either Single Mode (SM) or Polarization Maintaining (PM) fiber input and output ports.

The Optilab SOA-1550-BP has an operational wavelength between 1510 nm and 1590 nm, with a peak gain of a typical 20 dB within that region. The 14-pin butterfly packaging is MSA compliant and laser-welded hermetically sealed, with a thermistor and thermo-electric cooler (TEC) for ensured reliability, stability and performance.
