Features

Fibercore’s IsoGain™

Fibercore’s IsoGain range of Erbium Doped Fibers (EDFs) offer a wide selection of absorption and cut-off wavelengths to allow the best choice of fiber for each type of Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) design. The core composition of IsoGain has been engineered to generate a substantially flattened wavelength response that closely matches that of other leading fiber types. All model numbers with "F-I" in them are among the IsoGain family as well as F-EDF-2.

Low Absorption Fiber Available

Fibercore’s low absorption fibers offer best-in-class efficiency for C-band amplifiers whilst higher absorption fibers are optimized for L-band EDFAs. High cut-off wavelength (HC) fibers have larger core diameters, reducing non-linear effects and increasing efficiency at higher pump powers.

Fibercore’s MetroGain™

Fibercore’s MetroGain range is designed for high efficiency ‘Metro-style’ Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) configurations, single stage amplifiers, Amplified Spontaneous Emission (ASE) light sources and single channel or few channel EDFAs. All model numbers with "F-M" in them are among the MetroGain family as well as F-EDF and F-EDF-5.

EDF-Tx Erbium Doped Fibers

The EDF-T3 C-band erbium doped fiber provides low splice loss, high strength enhanced overlap integrals and pumping at 980nm and 1480 nm. The EDF-T6 is optimized for use in L-Band EDFAs and provides high erbium peak absorption levels and low background loss. The EDF-Tx family features low background loss and excellent uniformity.

High Gain Efficiencies

These erbium doped fibers deliver gain efficiencies in excess of 3.5 dB/mW when pumped with a 980nm laser diode.
