10dB LC APC Male to Female Singlemode Fiber Optic Attenuator, Build-out Type

Hangalaxy’s Single-Mode Fixed Fiber Optic Attenuators offer low return loss, high mode stability and a variety of attenuation values: 3, 5, 10, 15 and 20dB. As optical passive devices, FS attenuators are mainly used in fiber optic to debug optical power performance & optical instrument calibration correction & fiber signal attenuation to ensure the optical power in a stable and desired level in the link without any changes on its original transmission wave. Fiber optic attenuators are used in applications where the optical signal is too strong and needs to be reduced.

For example, in a multi-wavelength fiber optic system, you need to equalize the optical channel strength so that all the channels have similar power levels. This means to reduce stronger channels’ powers to match lower power channels.

Keyed Characteristics

(1) Adaptor Type Attenuator is optimized for operation at either 1310nm and has a bandwidth of ±40nm. This compact attenuator have a male FC/PC connector at one end and a female FC/PC connector at the other end, enabling it to be placed in the optical path without additional fiber pigtails and connectors. The 3dB attenuation is accurate to <±1.0dB;
(2) Designed to provide flat spectral attenuation required to function in all the wavelengths.

(3) Hangalaxy male-to-female attenuators contain doped fiber suitable for both 1310nm and 1550nm operation. Build-out attenuation values are available in 1dB increments from 1 to 20dB. FIS stocks standard 5, 10, 15, 20dB attenuation levels in most styles.

Application

(1) Telecommunication Networks;
(2) CATV Networks;
(3) Data Communications;
(4) Local Area Networks.

Technical Parameter

Ordering Information - Optical Attenuator

For precise testing purposes, engineers have also designed instrument type variable attenuators. These instrument type attenuators have high attenuation ranges, such as from 0.5 dB to 70dB. They also have very fine resolution, such as 0.01dB. This is critical for accurate testing.

Optical attenuators are typically classified as fixed or variable attenuators. Fixed attenuators have a fixed optical power reduction number, such as 1dB, 5dB, 10dB, etc. Variable attenuators’ attenuation level can be adjusted, such as from 0.5 dB to 20dB, or even 50dB. Some variable attenuators have very fine resolution, such as 0.1dB, or even 0.01dB.
