Abstract
A remotely pumped erbium-doped fiber amplifier system is described tha t provides a record budget improvement over a non-remotely pumped syst em of 11 dB for 145 mW of pump power. The improvement over previously reported experiments is a result of increased pump power as well as ca reful optimization of the fibers utilized.
