A pluggable bidirectional optical amplifier module may include preamp and booster optical amplifiers and a housing. The preamp optical amplifier may be configured to amplify optical signals traveling in a first direction. The booster optical amplifier may be configured to amplify optical signals traveling in a second direction. The housing may at least partially enclose the preamp optical amplifier and the booster optical amplifier. The pluggable bidirectional optical amplifier module may have a mechanical form factor that is compliant with a pluggable communication module form factor MSA. A colorless mux/demux cable assembly may be operated with the pluggable bidirectional optical amplifier. The colorless mux/demux cable assembly may include a 1:N optical splitter a N:1 optical combiner coupled side-by-side to the 1:N optical splitter, a first fiber optic cable optic cable, and a second fiber optic cable.
A pluggable bidirectional optical amplifier module, comprising:
A method of making a pluggable bidirectional optical amplifier module, the method comprising:
A method of amplifying optical signals output to and received from a remote amplifier module by a pluggable bidirectional optical amplifier module having a housing with a mechanical form factor that is compliant with a pluggable communication module form factor of a multisource agreement (MSA), the method comprising:
