® Fiber Driver EM316EDFA User Guide 2 Introduction to EM316EDFA Optical Amplifiers The fiber optic amplifier module is used to increase an optical signal for extended range or clarity without electrical conversion circuitry. The MRV EM316EDFA modules boost an optical input up to 20 decibels. The amplifier also has a bandwidth of 40 nm, making it suitable for use in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) applications as an optical spectral amplifier. The module may be controlled f

® Fiber Driver EM316EDFA User Guide 2.1 Features The EM316EDFA board can run in standalone mode without any input from a management module. The EM316EDFA analog input power determines the output power because the module runs at a fixed gain. EM316EDFA status is reported through SNMP through a network management module as well as by LEDs on the front panel. The green “SD” LED on the front panel indicates input greater than the thresholds corresponding to the EDFA module type,

However, because these devices are critical to network infrastructure, administrative monitoring of these devices is essential for early fault detection. EM316EDFA modules report simple status visually with front panel LEDs. More detailed diagnostic data is available remotely through the EM316LNXNM-
