EDFA with built in PON WDM ports

Part Number:
MXA5 Series

Applications:
,

Description

The MXA5 series is a low noise, high performance, FTTx high power multi-port optical amplifier with a gain spectrum band within 1540~1563nm. Each output port for the optical amplifier has built-in high performance CWDM PON port to conveniently connect with an OLT. Each of the 1550nm (CATV)’s output optical ports will multiplex 1310/1490nm and 1270/1577nm wavelengths from an external OLT, reducing the quantity of the components and improving the performance and reliability of the system. Models are also available with an option to pass 1610nm RFoG wavelengths.

The MXA5 Series has an extremely low noise figure. The unit adopts twin-stage amplification, the pre-amplifier adopts a low noise EDFA, and the output cascade adopts high power EYDFA technology. When the input optical power PIN is 0dBm, the noise figure of the unit is: Typ ≤4.5dB, Max ≤5.0dB unlike other manufactures which need higher optical power input to maintain lower noise figures.

The MXA5 Series optical amplifier incorporates world class pump lasers and American made OFS erbium-doped optical fiber. Superb APC, ACC, and ATC control, coupled with excellent design in the ventilation and heat-dissipation ensure a long life and exceptionally reliable operation of the pump laser. RS232 and RJ45 offer serial communication and SNMP network management ports.

The MXA5 Series LCD located on the front panel offers access to all equipment indexes and warning alarms. A WEB GUI interface is also available for operators preferring remote access and visibility.
