INO FAF-50 — Repair & Calibration Service

Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the INO FAF-50. Calibration covers gain at rated input power across the specified wavelength range, noise figure at rated gain setting, output power accuracy, gain flatness across the C-band or specified wavelength range, and polarization-dependent gain (PDG) where applicable. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.

Common INO FAF-50 faults: pump laser diode degradation (gain drop, reduced output power), TEC failure causing thermal drift, optical isolator degradation, power supply failure. The most common failure on any EDFA is pump laser diode degradation. Secondary faults include TEC failure causing thermal runaway, optical isolator degradation, and power supply failure.

This INO FAF-50 is listed at $1,555. Calibration is available separately from $450. Contact us for volume pricing or if you need multiple units.

INO FAF-50 calibration cost

NIST-traceable calibration for the INO FAF-50 is $450 (standard — pass/fail certificate and calibration sticker) or $650 (full measured data at every test point, reference standards documented, traceability chain included). Calibration for this instrument covers gain at rated input power across the specified wavelength range, noise figure at rated gain setting, output power accuracy, gain flatness across the C-band or specified wavelength range, and polarization-dependent gain (PDG) where applicable. Turnaround is 1 to 3 business days after receipt. See full calibration details →
