EDFA Optical Amplifiers
EM316EA and EM316EDFA
Fiber Driver®® optical amplifier modules provide multi-function, low noise, Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) solutions that are ideal for metro Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) applications.
The EM316EA family of C-Band EDFA Optical Amplifiers is part of the Fiber Driver® optical multi-service platform solution. Many model options serve all the traditional amplifier applications in an extended optical link: booster, in-line, and pre-amplifier.
