● OAs can be used in indoor scenarios with thermal power exchange or in environments
where the working conditions of the OAs can be guaranteed.
● The OA can be installed in the QSFP-DD, QSFP28, QSFP+, or dedicated power supply
port on a router.
● An OA can amplify the optical signals of just one optical ber.
● OAs can only be used with 80 km 400GE optical modules. Specically, the OAs and 80
km 400GE optical modules can be installed on the same board or span over dierent
boards.
● Only optical modules matching Huawei products can be used. If non-matching optical
modules are used, device requirements may fail to be met, and services may fail to run
properly.

the
ber cover.
Do not apply axial or lateral
ber wallop bumps on the ber. Do not fold, twist, or
crush the tail
ber. Do not drag the tail ber or press the coupling point of the tail
ber. Figure 3-49 shows how to properly place optical apparatus and bers.
