PatchAmp Frame Monitor

The PatchAmp Frame Monitoring System (RMS) integrates standard distribution amplifiers with a remote software package, creating a comprehensive signal verification solution. The system provides real-time monitoring and instant reporting of critical parameters such as signal presence, lock status, module temperature, fiber transmit and receive levels, and fiber laser metrics. This universal frame can accommodate any combination of cards, with the monitoring circuit being a standard feature across all PatchAmp distribution amplifiers.
