Overview
This standard describes the performance specification for seeded reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA) devices used for fibre optic telecommunication and optical data transmission applications. The performance standard contains a definition of the product performance requirements together with a series of sets of tests and measurements with clearly defined conditions, severities, and pass/fail criteria. The tests are intended to be run on a "once-off" basis to prove any product's ability to satisfy the performance standard's requirements. A product that has been shown to meet all the requirements of a performance standard can be declared as complying with the performance standard, but should then be controlled by a quality assurance/quality conformance program. The standard contains the minimum requirements, the details and the test severities for various tests. The responsible committee is DKE/UK 412.2 "Komponenten für Kommunikationskabelanlagen" ("Fibre optic systems and active devices") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
