Juniper TCX1000 1U Bi-Directional Inline Amplifier (ILA)

The Juniper TCX1000 Inline Amplifier (ILA) provides gain-flattened amplification, with the ability to tilt the spectrum for coarse spectrum equalization. Inline amplification provides a low-cost, low noise, high-density amplification solution for sites that do not require access to traffic on the line. The ILA embeds an OSC solution that provides a 100 Mb/s Ethernet channel on a 1511 nm carrier. It is compatible with the TCX1000 Programmable ROADM optical supervisory channel, which provides the ability to access ILA nodes remotely using in-band management, required for ILA sites where DCN access may be limited.
