The Optilab SOA 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. SOA can be ordered with Single Mode (SM) or Polarization Maintaining (PM) fiber input/ouput. Optilab SOA has 4 different operational wavelength :1310 nm, 1480 nm, 1550 nm, 1600 nm. 3 different housing versions: module, benchtop, rackmount are available.
The module version is an ideal building block for system integrators, especially in optical communication networks and CATV applications. It requires only a single +5V power supply with low power consumption.
The Benchtop unit incorporates a user-friendly front panel housing with a LCD monitor display, key switch, power adjust control knob and optical connectors. RS232 computer interface is also equipped on the rear panel.
The Rackmount unit is a 1 U 19” design for integration with network equipment. Contact Optilab for more information.
