Optical Fiber Attenuators
Optical fiber fixed attenuators are used in optical systems
where the optical power from a source is to high for the test equipment in use.
The fixed optical fiber attenuator introduces an in-line fixed loss that will reduce
the source power to an acceptable detection level. The attenuation level should be stable
with temperature and wavelength for a stable reliable system.
Intelmac's range of in line fiber fixed attenuators is a reliable and cost effective
solution that connects direct to the source connector. Intelmac offers SC, FC, LC and MU fixed
attenuators with an attenuation level between 1 and 20dB. The optical attenuators can be but coupled
to increase the attenuation level.
