A method and arrangement for stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) reduction in optical media that generate SBS are provided. SBS is reduced by providing a plurality of segments of optical medium and providing an optical isolator between adjacent pairs of segments so as to reduce the SBS and thereby improve power throughput. The isolators prevent backward propagation of an SBS signal between the adjacent segments. A wavelength multiplier, a wavelength converter and a multi-wavelength laser source, which include the arrangement, are also provided.
