The invention is directed to an optical fiber amplifier having a switchable or interchangeable fiber module for varying the effective length of an amplification fiber. An optical fiber amplifier for wavelength-division multiplex (WDM) signals comprises an interchangeable fiber module (FM) in the basic amplifier module (VM) for matching the gain to different input levels for optimum noise behavior. The change in amplification is based on the variation of the length of the amplification fibers (EDF1, EDF2).
