In this contribution it is present experimental and theoretical results demonstrating the effect of fast power transients in erbium-doped fiber amplifiers on packetized traffic transmitted through a chain of five EDFAs. Traffic of a LAN has been transmitted over three channels, the effect of EDFA cross gain saturation due to the burstiness of the traffic has been observed in a CW monitoring channel. The stabilizing effect of gain clamping of the first EDFA in the cascade has been investigated.
