Ciena B-720-0042-005: OAV-OS-U-C extended-reach C-band optical amplifier for the CN 4200.

The Ciena B-720-0042-005 is an OAV-OS-U-C optical amplifier module for the CN 4200 FlexSelect Advanced Services Platform, an erbium-doped fibre amplifier working in the C-band and listed as the extended-reach member of the CN 4200 amplifier range. Its job is to lift the aggregate optical power of a multi-wavelength signal so a span can be run further than the transmit optics alone would allow, without the cost and latency of converting back to electrical and regenerating. Ciena’s regional amplifier set for the 4200 covers EDFA modules and a Raman option, with fixed and variable gain parts serving different span budgets. The related B-720-0042-001, catalogued as OAF-00-1-C, is the fixed-gain 20dB C-band member of the same family, so the two codes are easy to confuse and the full part number is what settles which one you are holding. Amplifier modules are span-specific by nature, so the gain, the fibre type and the channel plan on the target link all matter before ordering. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks Ciena components to support ongoing network maintenance projects. Please contact our sales team for current stock and pricing.
