ium-doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA)

Salient Technical Features

EDFA is a key component for Specifications fine-tuned for
community antenna television
(CATV) and fibre-to-the-home application in CATV and WDM;
(FTTH) technology. The CSIR-CGCRI
technology in this regard, developed operating wavelength of 1540-1530
in partnership with industry, comprise
of specialty optical fibre and a series nm for former and C-band region
of electronic input with controls
which can be fitted intermittently for the latter; output power ranging
along optical cable fibres. It restores
energy loss during transmission and from 20-23 dBm and 18-20dBm
ensures high quality pictures, sound
and connectivity. respectively.
