Optical Interfaces for Multichannel Systems with Optical Amplifiers - Series G: Transmission Systems and Media Digital Systems and Networks - Transmission Media Characteristics - Characteristics of Optical Components and Sub-Systems Study Group 15; 40 pp
This Recommendation applies to optical interfaces for multichannel optical line systems with optical amplifiers for terrestrial long-haul applications. This Recommendation defines and provides values for optical interface parameters of interoffice and long-haul systems with target lengths up to 160 km without line amplifiers and with target lengths up to 640 km with optical line amplifiers. Descriptions of system reference configurations and their constituent functional blocks are contained in Recommendation G.68 1.
