Here are the key steps to solve this problem:
1. Calculate the output power of channel 1 after the first IL using Formula 2: P1out = P1in - IL = -3dBm - 7dB = -10dBm
2. Calculate the total output power of OMU using Formula 1: P32out = P1out + 10lg32 = -10dBm + 5dB = -5dBm
3. Calculate the input power required for OA using Formula 3: P1in = P1out - G = -10dBm - 16dB = -26dBm
4. Attenuators should be added before OMU and OA to reduce the input powers

Basic Knowledge Optical Power Unit mW (Milliwatt) • Commonly used optical power unit dBm (Decibel for milliwatt) • Optical power unit for the easy calculati on dB (Decebel) • Value for the optical power increased o r decreased Basic Knowledge
Relationship between mW and dBm
A(mW)=10lgA(dBm) B(dBm)=10B/10(mW) content Purpose of Optical Power Debugging

Optical Power Calculation
Examples Optical Power Debugging Purpose
We have 3 Purposes:
1. Make each channel has the same the optical power in the transmission.
2. Make the OA working in the Best State.
3. Make the OTUR working in the Best State.
Optical Power Debugging Purpose
1. Make each channel has the same the optical
power in the transmission.
In the transmission, the output power from OA cann
ot be as high as we want, so the limited optical pow er should be allotted to each channel equally. After demultiplexing, each receiver can get the same opti cal power. Optical Power Debugging Purpose Continue:
If In the receiving end: Over loading
OTUR O Client D Side U OTUR
Under sensitivity
Control the difference between any two waves to
less than 3dB. The less difference the better. Optical Power Debugging Purpose 2. Make the OA working in the Best State.
OA has three working state:
Over-Saturated State;
Saturated State; This is the best working state.
