Optical Attenuator NanoConnect LC/UPC-LC/UPC Male to Female Singlemode 5 dB

The LC/UPC Fiber Optic Attenuator, 5 dB, is a passive optical component designed to precisely reduce the power of optical signals without distorting them. This adapter ensures optimal regulation of incoming signal power to maintain stable optical network operation and prevent optical receiver overload.

The attenuator is compatible with fiber optic equipment operating at two main frequencies - 1310 nm and 1550 nm on single-mode fiber. It is ideal for a wide range of applications, including local and trunk networks, cable network equipment, communication systems, and network channel stress testing.

Features:

• High attenuation accuracy up to ±1 dB to ensure the required signal strength.
• Maximum operating power (1 W).
• Low return loss and PDL: tip and sleeve are precisely polished to minimize the distance between fiber ends.
• Simple build-out attenuator design, made from durable plastic.

Applications:

• Fiber optic distribution frames
• Fiber optic network systems, sensors
• High-speed fiber optic transmission systems
• Cable television systems (CATV)
• Long-distance dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) systems
• Optical add-drop multiplexers (OADM)
• Stress testing and optical line evaluation
