An optical amplifier amplifies light as it is without converting the optical signal to an electrical signal, and is an extremely important device that supports the long-distance optical communication networks of today. The major types of optical amplifiers include an EDFA, FRA, and SOA.
New 5G optical network architecture requires high bandwidth and low latency. Therefore, the providers of fiber optic cables are all gearing up to meet the challenges to manufacture new 5G related products for 5G network deployment.
In addition to complying with LSZH flame retardant (FRT) tests (IEC 60332, IEC 60754, and IEC 61034), LSZH FR cables are also tested to IEC 60331-21, BS 6387 or SS 299 to ensure that the fire-resistant cables maintain circuit integrity under fire conditions.
