Optical Transponders
The MPBC RMH-OTM transponder series is the complement to the RMH-Series of amplifiers. Units are available at STM-4 and STM-16 data rates. The unit converts a short-haul optical signal and grooms it for transmission in the 1550 nm band. Signal grooming includes Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) suppression and Forward-Error-Correction (FEC).

Super Raman
The award-winning Super Raman utilizes a patented technology to provide distributed Raman amplification via third-order cascaded pumping. This product offers outstanding OSNR, which over a fiber optic link can translate in up to 2.5 dB of additional margin improvement compared to conventional Raman pumping.
| Gain Region |
1530 - 1565 |
