IPG Photonics' 1RU EAR Series low noise, high performance EDFAs provides the ideal building blocks for CATV network systems. These space efficient rack mount amplifiers are available in both single optical channel and DWDM configurations. IPG’s EDFAs are available with up to 200 mW (23 dBm) per port output power. IPG's rack mount amplifiers are constructed using our proprietary amplifier modules, providing the best available reliability characteristics and the widest range of power choices for cost-effective architecture flexibility. Optimized for low noise, IPG’s EDFAs allow for clear transmission of video, voice and data signals. Carrier-to-noise ratio (CNR) penalty is typically less than 1 dB.
