Valiant adds VCL-9009, Optical (EDFA) Amplifier to its optical transmission portfolio

The Valiant VCL-9009, Optical Amplifier is designed to amplify and boost an optical input and transmit it, without additional mid-span signal repeaters, over extended single mode optical spans. The optical transmitter of the VCL-9009 is designed to increase the output power so that the input optical signal may be transmitted over an extended distance.

VCL-9009 is a high stability output power EDFA which may be used to provide an optical signal gain of up to 20dBm. The stability pump laser and unique ATC (automatic temperature control) and AGC (automatic gain control) circuits incorporated in the unit ensures excellent optical characteristics and high stability that allow the unit to operate over a wide temperature range and harsh environmental conditions. The high stability and high precision OAM (Operation and Management) interface uses a strong password control and provide secure access and advanced monitoring capabilities. The unit can be securely monitored and managed remotely using SSH and SNMPv3.

Some of the Key Features and Highlights include:

1. Supports SNMPv2 and SNMPv3 protocol for remote management and monitoring.
2. Supports SSH for secure (encrypted) communications.
3. Supports password-controlled access with password strength monitoring.
4. Provides time-stamped alarm and event logging.
5. Supports NTP and IEEE 1588v2 PTP clock synchronization options for accurate timestamping of all alarms and events.
6. Supports dual (1+1 redundant) power inputs.
7. Provides a wide range of power supply input options including 24VDC, 48VDC, 110VDC, 220VDC and 110/240V, 50/60Hz.
8. Available in a compact, industrial, corrosion resistant, 19” rack mount chassis.
9. Supports wide range (-15dBm ~ +5dBm) input optical power.
