4 EDFA Features

While operating correctly in an appropriate environment, EM316EDFA optical amplifier modules require minimal operator intervention. However, because these devices are critical to network infrastructure, administrative monitoring of these devices is essential for early fault detection.

EM316EDFA modules report simple status visually with front panel LEDs. More detailed diagnostic data is available remotely through the EM316LNXNM-OT module management interfaces discussed in the next section.
