What is the function of a pre-amplifier in an optical network?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

A pre-amplifier is an optical amplifier that is used to boost the power of the received optical signal before it is detected by the receiver in an optical communication system. This is done to overcome the loss of power that occurs as the signal travels through the optical fiber and to ensure that the receiver can detect the signal. The pre-amplification stage is typically located close to the receiver in order to minimize the distance that the signal has to travel between the amplifier and the receiver, which helps to reduce the noise and distortion in the signal.

I don't know, man. I'm just hoping the real answer isn't 'all of the above' - that would be way too easy, right?

A) Through the pre-amplifier, the optical signal is amplified at the receiver side after it travels along the fiber from another node.

You know, I bet the real answer is C - the pre-amplifier amplifies the signal at both the receiver and transmitter sides. That's just how these optical networks work.

Ha, you guys are overthinking it. Clearly the answer is B - the pre-amplifier amplifies the signal at the transmitter side before it's sent over the line.

Yeah, it's important to make sure the signal is strong enough for the line span.

That makes sense, it would help boost the signal before sending it out.

I think the pre-amplifier amplifies the optical signal both at the receiver side and at the transmitter side to ensure signal quality.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. I think it might be D - the pre-amplifier amplifies the signal within the node to recover internal losses.

I'm pretty sure the correct answer is A. The pre-amplifier boosts the signal at the receiver side after it's traveled along the fiber, right?

Yes, that's correct. It helps boost the signal after it has traveled along the fiber.
