The Multiple Application Platform (MAP) Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (mEDFA-A1) is optimized for the industry-leading MAP-200 platform from JDSU. Based on the previous-generation MAP, the MAP-200 is the first photonic layer lab and manufacturing platform that is LAN Extensions for Instrumention (LXI)-compliant by conforming to the required physical attributes, Ethernet connectivity, and interchangeable virtual instrument (IVI) drivers. The MAP-200 platform is optimized for density and maximum configurability to meet specific application requirements in the smallest possible foot print.

The MAP EDFA has a saturated output power ranging from 14 dBm to 21 dBm, features noise figures as low as 3.5 dB and has gain flatness better than 2.0 dB. All MAP EDFA models are available for operation in C- or L-band.

Key Features

• Pre-amp, booster and in-line configurations
• High output power and gain maximize operating range
• Low noise figure minimizes optical impairment
• Monitoring and alarms available
• Can be automated when used with MAP-200 LXI-compliant interfaces and IVI drivers
