This document incorporates provisions and clauses that are in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-26 Effective 12 Jun 2008 (CLIN 0001) RMA 771 Amp Repair. Description of repairs: Replace output cable on, 200W class polarization maintaining Ytterbium doped optical amplifier. The optical power amplifier requires replacement of it's output delivery optical fiber and output connector. The fiber being replaced is a passive double clad optical fiber with the following characteristics: Signal core diameter size: 25 micro-meters Signal core numerical aperture: 0.06 Polarization maintaining fiber, polarization extinction ratio: 17dB Pump core diameter (inner clad): 400 micro-meters Pump core numerical aperture: 0.46 The above fiber is end capped with a fusion spliced 400 micro-meters diameter optical fiber on the output end. The end capped fiber is angle polished at 4 degrees with the polarization inducing stress rods in the plane of the angle. The resulting end capped and angled end are mounted in a keyed Richard Losch, LD-80 high power optical fiber connector with the polarization inducing stress rods aligned to the keyed connector (+/-2 degrees alignment tolerance). The prepared fiber and connector is protected with metal jacket sheathing and the fiber is fusion spliced to the 200W class polarization maintaining Ytterbium doped optical amplifier. The fusion spliced connection between the Ytterbium doped optical amplifier and the passive double clad optical fiber also serves as a pump dump/cladding stripper for the amplifier.
