Variable Fiber Attenuators

Projects in the Philippines benefit from keeping the configuration, branch identification and installation requirement consistent across every participating site. The variable attenuator product line puts an adjustable, calibrated loss element between two connectors: an FC mechanical configuration covering 1-30 dB and an in-line SM/MM configuration covering 0-60 dB with LC/SC/FC/ST interface options. One instrument sweeps the values that would otherwise require a drawer full of fixed attenuators - the standard tool for receiver sensitivity testing and optical path margin verification.

For projects in the Philippines, attenuator test cables qualify long-reach transceivers on the bench before the modules travel to site. Project teams in the Philippines can carry this requirement into the site documentation used by each contractor.

Variable Fiber Attenuators

FC Single Mode Variable Fiber Optic Attenuator, 1-30dB
1-30db attenuation, variable, 1260-1620(sm)nm, ion-doped fiber element, factory tested.

LC/SC/FC/ST Variable Fiber Optic VOA In-Line Attenuator, SM/MM, 0-60dB
0-60db attenuation, 1310-1550(sm)/850-1300(mm)nm, ion-doped fiber element, factory tested.

Determine female-to-female inline bodies where the attenuator moves between test setups, and plug bodies for permanent panel positions.

Placing an Order and Factory Support

All attenuators in this product line are optically verified before packing: attenuation specification, return loss and end-face condition are checked on every unit. State the attenuation specification, connector product line, polish grade and body style with the inquiry, and the factory confirms the specification with the quotation. Customers in the Philippines can include multi-site labeling or documentation requirements when requesting a project quotation.
