VIAVI MAP-EFDA Erbium-Doped Fibre Amplifier for Multiple Application Platform

The Multiple Application Platform (MAP) Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) Cassette combines the optical performance of the traditional JDSU EDFA benchtop models, with the flexibility and modularity of the MAP. Nine standard configurations are available to meet your needs. The MAP EDFA has a saturated output power ranging from 14 dBm to 21 dBm, features noise figures as low as 3.3 dB and has gain flatness better than 1.4 dB. The MAP EDFA's are available for operation in the C- or L-band.

The MAP EDFA models provide specialized variants and optical performance not available in the Benchtop EDFA line. Additional EDFA models are available in the Benchtop EDFA product line for applications requiring higher saturated power or operation in the C+L-band.

Safety Information

• This optical source cassette, when installed in the MAP chassis, complies to CE requirements plus UL3101-1 and CAN/CSA-C22.2 No.1010.1, meets the requirements of Class 3B in standard IEC 60825-1 (2002), and complies with 21 CFR 1040.1 except deviations per Laser Notice No.50, July 2001.
