6 PON Amplifier SAO9p, SAS6p PON Amplifier Features and Applications 13 nm upstream: SAO9p 190 nm downstream: SAS6p Low polarization dependence High output power 1-Pin MSA package GPON, EPON, and BPON systems Mid span amplifier 6 db gain downstream 9 db gain upstream Extend reach to 60 km Supports up to ONTs Description The QLight SAO9p and SAS6p are semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOA) designed for use in PON access networks. They are based on the Alphion proprietary QLight technology platform for the manufacture of advanced discrete photonic devices. The amplifiers regenerate signals using all-optical amplification, and are transparent to both data rate and protocol. This allows them to support legacy (BPON, GE-PON and GPON) and future FTTx standards, making them interoperable with a broad range of OEM PON equipment. Based on Alphion s proprietary QLight technology, they amplify signals at 13 nm and 190 nm, wavelength not accessible with commercial fiber-amplifier (EDFA) technology. The fast-response-time of QLight technology allows the SAO9p and SAS6p to accommodate both continuous (downstream) and bursty (upstream) traffic. The amplifiers are available in a MSA compliant, 1-pin butterfly package, based on the Alphion standard packaging platform. Alphion offers a broad range of SOAs supporting wavelengths from 00 nm to 1600 nm, with gain options from 5 to 30 db and we can optimize parameters to meet your specific application needs. 6 Fiber to the Future
