The JDS Uniphase OAB 1415-16-Z001 is an Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) engineered to boost optical signal power in fiber optic communication systems across the C-band and L-band wavelength ranges. Operating from 1528 nm to 1610 nm, this amplifier delivers high gain with low noise figure, making it ideal for manufacturing test environments and research applications. The unit supports multiple configurations—pre-amplifier, booster, or in-line amplifier—to match diverse deployment requirements. A benchtop or rack-mountable design with front-panel LCD display provides real-time monitoring of input/output power and current control.
