EDFA WDM 8x16dBm – OPTON (HIGH POWER EDFA) PTA5102YW-08

EDFA WDM 8x16dBm – OPTON (PTA5102YW-08) High Power Optical Amplifier for CATV & FTTH Networks

The OPTON EDFA WDM 8x16dBm (PTA5102YW-08) is a high-performance, high-power Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) designed for modern CATV and FTTH optical transmission systems. Engineered with cutting-edge optical technology, this device integrates 8-port WDM outputs, each delivering up to 16dBm optical power, making it ideal for large-scale distribution of broadcast video and internet services over long distances.

Whether you are building a new network or upgrading an existing infrastructure, the PTA5102YW-08 ensures stable signal amplification, low noise, and exceptional reliability, making it the perfect solution for telecom operators, ISPs, and MSOs.

8-Port High Power Output with WDM Integration

The key highlight of this EDFA is its 8x16dBm optical output ports, which enable signal amplification and distribution across eight separate optical paths. With integrated WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) modules, each port combines CATV video signals (at 1550 nm) with data and voice signals (typically 1490 nm and 1310 nm) from PON systems (GPON or EPON). This allows seamless delivery of triple-play services (voice, video, and data) on a single fiber.

The integration of WDM significantly reduces the need for additional components and simplifies network design while optimizing transmission capacity.

High Stability & Low Noise Figure

The PTA5102YW-08 EDFA is equipped with a high-reliability pump laser and low-noise optical components, ensuring optimal amplification with a noise figure as low as <5 dB. This is crucial for maintaining signal integrity, especially in video broadcasting, where distortion can affect picture and sound quality.

The advanced automatic power control (APC) and automatic temperature control (ATC) technologies further guarantee stable output power and protect the internal components against voltage and thermal fluctuations.

Intelligent Control & Monitoring System

This OPTON EDFA features an intelligent microprocessor-based control system with a user-friendly LCD display on the front panel. The interface allows real-time monitoring and management of various parameters, including:

• Optical input/output power

• Laser operating status

• Temperature and voltage levels

• Alarm indicators for abnormal conditions

Additionally, the device supports SNMP remote management via an RJ45 port, enabling integration with existing NMS (Network Management Systems). This ensures ease of operation and reduces the need for manual intervention, especially in large deployments.

Robust Design for Continuous Operation

The PTA5102YW-08 is housed in a 1U 19-inch rack-mount chassis, designed for high-density server rooms and telecom racks. Its industrial-grade cooling system, featuring low-noise fans and efficient heat dissipation, ensures continuous and stable 24/7 operation.

Its wide input voltage range (typically 100–240V AC) and robust power supply make it suitable for varied power environments, ensuring minimal downtime and maximum reliability.
