FOTP-214 IEC 61290-1 Optical Fibre Amplifiers – Part 1: Generic Specification

Scope and object
This part of IEC 61291 applies to optical fibre amplifiers
(OFAs) and optically amplified, elementary subsystems. It applies
only to OFAs using active fibres, containing rare-earth dopants,
presently commercially available.
The object of this standard is:
— to establish uniform requirements for transmission, operation,
reliability and environmental properties of OFAs;
— to provide assistance to the purchaser in the selection of
consistently high-quality OFA products for his particular
applications.
NOTE -This International Standard has been prepared from the
experience with Erbium-doped silicabased fibre amplifiers,
operating in the 1 550 nm wavelength region. Future OFAs, based on
different active fibres and possibly operating in different
wavelengths regions, are not intended to be excluded from this
International Standard and may lead to additional definitions and
test methods, as well as to modifications of the existing ones.
