XENPAK-compatible, hot-pluggable EDFA eases terminal amplification

摘要

Avanex (Fremont, CA), a provider of "intelligent" photonic products for optical networks, has released its PureGain 200, a hot-pluggable erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) initially targeted at 10-Gbit/sec applications that is fully compatible with the industry-standard XENPAK chassis normally associated with transceivers.
