C-Band Erbium Doped

nnnn

Nufern's high performance C-Band Erbium-Doped 980-HP Fibers are designed for use in single and multi-channel C-band

nnnn

amplifiers and ASE sources. The 80 urn version is suitable for small form-factor amplifiers and metro amps. The "HI" version

nnnn

is designed to achieve the highest possible optical efficiencies in applications where available pump power is limited.

nnnn

All Nufern erbium-doped fibers are fabricated with a proprietary technology and have highly consistent and reproducible
