This unit

The JDS Uniphase MAPB+1E1550FA1 is an optical amplifier cassette module engineered for the JDS Uniphase MAP system platform. Operating at 1550 nm, this EDFA-based module delivers optical gain essential for signal boosting in DWDM systems and extending optical network reach. The module installs as a hot-swappable cassette within either MAP Master or MAP Benchtop chassis, enabling flexible test and measurement configurations without system downtime.

Technical Specifications

Product Line: JDS Uniphase MAP Series

Module Type: Optical Amplifier (EDFA configuration)

Wavelength: 1550 nm

Saturated Output Power: 14 dBm to 21 dBm typical

Noise Figure: As low as 3.3 dB

Gain Flatness: Better than 1.4 dB

Band: C-band or L-band operation available

Key Features

Hot-swappable cassette architecture eliminates need for system shutdown during module changes

Automatic cassette identification via MAP chassis firmware

Reversible front/rear optical access accommodates varied deployment configurations

Available in multiple optical connector types (FC/PC, FC/APC, SC/PC, SC/APC) for system compatibility

Proprietary backplane interface integrates directly with MAP chassis control electronics

Typical Applications

DWDM system signal boosting and regeneration

Optical network reach extension

Laboratory and field testing of fiber-optic systems

Signal power optimization in long-haul transmission links

Compatibility & Integration The MAPB+1E1550FA1 integrates into JDS Uniphase MAP Master (19-inch rackmount, 8-slot capacity) and MAP Benchtop (9.5-inch format, 3-slot capacity) chassis. Both platforms feature color displays, dynamic MAP firmware, and remote communication via RS-232 and GPIB interfaces. Power and control functions are managed entirely by the parent MAP chassis.
