Optical Preamplifiers, Amplifiers, and Boosters
Optical amplifier cards are used in amplified DWDM nodes, including hub nodes, amplified OADM nodes, and line amplified nodes. Optical amplifier cards include the Optical Preamplifier (OPT-PRE), Optical Booster (OPT-BST and OPT-BST-L) and Optical Amplifier (OPT-AMP-L). The DWDM OPT-BST, OPT-BST-L, OPT-PRE, and OPT-AMP-L cards have the following subtabs:
