RLT-M Series Raman Laser Rack Mount, The RLT Series Raman Fiber Lasers are optical sources optimized for Telecom applications. They operate within any wavelength from 1100nm to 1700nm with output powers of up to 10W CW. These lasers are manufactured using IPG power pump diode lasers which operate over the widest temperature range without requiring thermoelectric coolers [TEC], thus providing unequalled reliability. The lasers are being deployed in demanding ultra long haul DWDM transmission systems to provide distributed Raman amplification and remote pumping of Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifiers [EDFAs]. The Rack Mount Chassis model, RLT-R, provides a fully configured subsystem, including a high power WDM to allow connection to the transmission fiber and to transmit or receive equipment. It provides a network ready element which is managed via the RS232 serial interface or utilizing SNMP and WEB based network management. The salient features of the Raman Laser Rack Mount:
