IEC 61290-2-2 Ed. 1.0 b:1998

Applies to optical fibre amplifiers using active fibres, containing rare-earth dopants, presently commercially available. Establishes uniform requirements for accurate and reliable measurements, by means of the electrical spectrum analyzer test method, of the following OFA parameters: – nominal output signal power; – large-signal output stability; – saturation output power; – maximum input signal power; – maximum output signal power; – input power range; – output power range; – maximum total output power.
