Annotation of standard text IEC/TR 61292-8-ed.1.0 :

IEC TR 61292-8:2019, which is a technical report, deals with high-power optical amplifiers. It provides general information relating to high-power optical amplifiers with an output power greater than 500 mW for the fibre communication field. It covers the following aspects: - general information; - example of the optical amplifiers configuration realizing high optical output power; - test method for optical output power and gain; - considerations on high-power optical amplifiers. Potential applications of high-power optical amplifiers are briefly reviewed in Annex A. Informative IEC documents related to high optical power are listed in Annex B. Keywords: high-power amplifiers
