This fibre optic amplifier was developed by Nortel Networks (formerly Northern Telecom) in Ottawa, Ontario. Nortel Networks was one of the most important manufacturers of telecommunications equipment in the world during the 1990s and early 2000s. L’amplificateur à câble à fibre optique était conçu par Nortel Networks (Précédemment Northern Telecom) en Ontario dans la ville d’Ottawa. Nortel Networks était un des manufacturiers de matériel de télécommunications les plus importantes au monde pendant les années 1990s et 2000s.
Function
This artifact combines separate wavelengths of light into a single beam, providing several channels of communication through one fibre optic cable. Cet artefact combine plusieurs longueurs d'ondes lumineuses pour produire un faisceau lumineux qui va appuyer plusieurs chaînes de communication au travers un câble à fibres optiques.
Technical
This dialectric-based Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) filter functions as a multiplexer (combining separate wavelengths of light into a single beam) and demultiplexer (separating a single beam back into separate wavelengths). It can be augmented to accommodate additional wavelengths on a single fibre by connecting several of these components in a series. Ce système de communication WDM est basé sur des filtres diélectriques fonctionnent à la fois comme un multiplexeur (pour combine plusieurs longueurs d'ondes lumineuses pour produire un faisceau lumineux) et à la fois comme un démultiplexeur (pour séparer un faisceau lumineux en plusieurs ondes lumineuses). Il peut être augmenté pour accommoder un surplus d'ondes lumineuses sur une seule fibre en connectant d'autres de cet artefact et ces composantes dans une série.

Markings
On one side of the connecting cable terminals/Sur un bord des connecteurs de câbles: "SII",On the other side of the connecting terminals/Sur l’autre côté des connecteurs de câbles:"SSC-P".
Missing
One dielectric filter and its corresponding optical fiber cable with connecting terminal are missing/L'objet manque un filtre diélectrique. Le connecteur de câble et le câble à fibres optiques qui correspondent au filtre sont aussi manquante.
Finish
A gold coloured metal case holds five synthetic dielectric based WDM filters. It also has five yellow synthetic fibre optic cables and their corresponding blue synthetic connecting terminals. Each of the cables and terminals are kept in clear synthetic bags. Un métal de couleur or en forme rectangulaire qui retient cinq filtres diélectriques MRL synthétiques. L'objet a aussi cinq câbles à fibres optiques de couleur jaune avec des connecteurs de câbles bleus qui sont aussi faits avec du matériel synthétique. Chacun des câbles ainsi que les connecteurs de câbles sont retenus dans un sac synthétique transparent.
