Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier Price & Specs
VIAVI Solutions / JDSU OAB1560-1FA2 Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier Description
JDSU OAB1560-1FA2 Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier is engineered for optical network applications requiring robust signal amplification. This specialized pre-amplifier is designed to boost optical power within a wavelength range of 1530-1560 nm and 1570-1600 nm, making it suitable for dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) and other fiber optic systems. Formerly part of the VIAVI Solutions portfolio, this amplifier provides critical functionality in telecommunications infrastructure, research and development setups, and various optical test environments, ensuring signal integrity across long-haul and metropolitan area networks. Its unflattened characteristics provide specific gain profiles for targeted system optimization. The OAB1560-1FA2 supports optical amplification across primary and extended C-band wavelengths, specifically 1530-1560 nm and 1570-1600 nm, to accommodate diverse network requirements. This pre-amplifier is characterized by an unflattened gain profile, delivering specific performance tailored for optical signal conditioning. With an FC/APC optical interface, it ensures reliable connectivity for critical fiber optic links. When input power is at -4 dBm, the amplifier can provide output power up to +17.3 dBm at 1550 nm and up to +17.9 dBm at 1586 nm.

What Customers Are Saying
- Neo Google
Contacted Artisan for hard to find that has been out of circulation for nearly a decade. Their rapid response and availability exceeded all other suppliers. They supplied the part overnight to an out of state facility which allowed us to repair our equipment successfully. Well packed electronics. Well stated and professional documentation. I work with a hundred different suppliers any day of the week in my profession. Artisan remains at the very top of the bookmark tab. Thanks so much.
- Arvind P.
We have some test equipment in our lab from the 1990's that stopped working about 2 years ago. It sat in the corner collecting dust, but we took on a project last month that required more machines. After talking to Artisan, we found out we could get parts to fix our machine for much less than buying a new one!
- Dongmin K.
Fast shipping on replacement parts we thought we’d never find!
