EAD Series 0.5 to 5 W Single C and L-Band Erbium Fiber Amplifiers

With the EAD Series of high power EDFAs, IPG offers a range of Erbium doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs) with models in both the C-band (1535-1567 nm), the L-Band (1570-1610 nm), and powers ranging from 0.5 watt to over 5 watts. The amplifiers are conveniently packaged for use in a laboratory or test-bed environment, with all electronics and optical components contained in one instrument. The user-friendly front panel includes a monitor display, a keyed on/off switch, power control and fiber input/outputs. An RS232 or optional GPIB interface allows for easy integration into your manufacturing or experimental set-up.

These universal amplifier devices operate in the temperature range of 0 – 50 °C, and require only 110/220 V AC (50/60 Hz). IPG’s patented multi-clad side pumping technique allows for the use of extremely reliable broad-stripe multimode diodes in all models, with built-in redundancy and no need for TEC cooling.
