NMOA8100 Series EDFA

This product line is a family of state-of-the-art high performance CATV Erbium Doped

Fiber Amplifiers (EDFA). Packaged in convenient 1RU housing, this line of fiber

amplifiers uses the latest DSP technology at the core of electrical control circuitry

resulting in superior output power stability & exceptionally low noise figures demanded

by CATV applications.

The NMOA8100 provides very stable optical outputs over a wide operating

temperature range. Internally it is supported with input and output isolators for

enhanced system stability and performance. Optical power is continuously monitored

at the input and output for automatic power control during operation over a wide

operating temperature range.

The NMOA8100 offers a rich set of features. These include remote management

capability through SNMPv2 and telnet. The NMOA8100 also supports MIBs specified

by SCTE (Society of Cable Television Engineers) for this product class. Additionally,

the front panel’s LCD and button provides the operator with the option to both monitor

the status of the amplifier and control/operate the amplifier locally.
