PRODUCT SUMMARY
The Maxcom MX-A5400 Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) has been
designed for CATV, FTTH and HFC applications. The EDFA is suitable for long
haul transmission networks or FTTH distribution networks. This optical
amplifier is packaged in a 19” rack mount housing to provide a complete
optical communications solution. Maxcom offers our MX-A5400 platform
which can be ordered with 8, 16 and 32 output ports and various output
powers.
The output power available is from 16.5 dBm to 23 dBm.
The MX-A5400 series is a high-power multi-port EDFA with a gain spectrum
band within 1540~1563nm. It is designed for the application of a single
channel or 1~8 continuous ribbon channels (ITU wavelengths). This series
of EDFA offers a flexible and low-cost solution for a CATV systems large
coverage area.
The MX-A5400 series EDFA’s are a high performance, multiple optical
output EDFA’s designed for analog and digital CATV QAM signals. Maxcom’s
1550 optical amplifiers and EDFA’s adopt world class pump lasers and
American OFS erbium-doped optical fiber components. Excellent APC, ACC
and ATC control, superb design in the ventilation and heat-dissipation
ensure long life and a highly reliable operation of the pump laser.
The LCD at the front panel offers equipment status and warning alarms.
The laser will switch off automatically if optical power is lost, which offers
security protection for the laser
