    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Applies to optical fibre amplifiers (OFAs) using active fibres, containing rare-earth dopants, presently commercially available.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Applies to commercial optical fibre amplifiers (OFAs) using active fibres. It establishes requirements for accurate measurements, by means of electrical spectrum analyser test method, of the maximum reflectance tolerable at input and output (as defined in clause 3 of IEC 61291-1). The accuracy for reflectance tolerable is +/-0,5dB.
