This unit
The Keopsys/Optocom Innovation KPS-BT-C-10-FA is a C-band erbium-doped fiber amplifier engineered for optical communication and sensing applications requiring high output power and low noise performance. This microprocessor-controlled benchtop unit employs Keopsys' proprietary VSP® (V-groove Side Pumping) technology to achieve efficient amplification across the C-band. Automatic Power Control (APC) and Automatic Current Control (ACC) maintain stable output regardless of input signal variations. An integrated GPIB interface enables remote operation, real-time diagnostics, and automated data acquisition, making the KPS-BT-C-10-FA ideal for both laboratory characterization and OEM system integration.

Keopsys/Optocom Innovation KPS-BT-C-10-FA — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Keopsys/Optocom Innovation KPS-BT-C-10-FA. 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 Keopsys/Optocom Innovation KPS-BT-C-10-FA 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.
