RFA Optical Amplifier Board

The RFA optical amplifier board is engineered for use in dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) systems, providing superior amplification through stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in optical fibers. This technology effectively mitigates nonlinear effects such as four-wave mixing, enhancing the optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) and significantly extending transmission distances. The board is designed for high efficiency and low power consumption, making it an ideal choice for demanding network environments.
