<p>A dielectric shell (200) suitable for use with high power repeaters in undersea optical communication systems is disclosed. The high power repeaters employ Raman amplification and employ a large number of pump lasers. According to one exemplary embodiment, the dielectric layer (202) is formed by wrapping a sheet of dielectric material having sufficient breakdown voltage around an inner frame (203) that secures the electrical and optical components used for amplification of the optical data signals which pass through the repeater. According to another exemplary embodiment, the inner frame is itself formed from a dielectric material to provide the breakdown voltage protection.</p> |
