Single-channel, Erbium-doped Fiber Amplifiers (EDFAs) (PDF, 0.25 MB)
The WaveReady™ WRA-1xx series are user-configurable, single-channel optical amplifiers that provide simple and economical C-band optical amplification for single-channel applications in a flexible and ready-to-use package. These erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs) are network-ready and easily configured as a booster or as pre/inline amplifier.
The modules work by default in constant signal-gain mode, but can be configured to constant total output-power mode. Its ease-of-use and performance make the WRA-1xx series the ideal solution for access and metro optical networks.
Front-panel light emitting diodes (LEDs) indicate module status, while integrated electronics provide alarm and control functionality.
Deployed with a WaveReady™ communications module (COM200), these units can be managed and configured remotely through TL1, SNMP or by using the WaveReady™ Node Manager. Local and remote management are done through an RS-232 or Ethernet port on the communications module.
The module is installed in a WaveReady 3500F or 3100 shelf mounted in 19- or 23-inch telecommunications racks.
