Optical attenuator LC/UPC (F) - LC/UPC (F) Singlemode 3dB 54178

Fiber Optic Attenuators – Precise Signal Adjustment

A fiber optic attenuator is a key component in data transmission systems, allowing for optimal matching of optical signal power to receiver sensitivity. Its function is to reduce the signal level to avoid detector overload and ensure proper system operation. It is placed in the optical path directly before the receiving device.

This model, equipped with female LC/UPC (F) – LC/UPC (F) connectors, features an attenuation of 3dB and is designed to operate with single-mode fibers in the wavelength range of 1310nm - 1550nm. This makes it ideal for use in telecommunications networks, data transmission, CATV, control and signaling systems, and measurement networks.

Construction and Application

LC/UPC connectors are characterized by their small size, allowing for effective use in areas with high connection density. The snap-lock system ensures a reliable connection and minimizes the risk of accidental disconnection. The flatly polished ferrule end face (UPC) guarantees low signal loss and high transmission quality.

• Precise power adjustment: The attenuator provides accurate adjustment of the signal level to meet receiver requirements.
• Versatile application: It will work in various networks – from telecommunications to measurement.
• Reliable connection: LC/UPC connectors with a snap-lock provide a stable and secure connection.
• Easy installation: Installation and removal of the attenuator is simple and intuitive, saving time during installation work.
• Compatibility: Designed to work with single-mode fibers, ensuring high transmission efficiency over long distances.

The Qoltec fiber optic attenuator is a solid and reliable solution for professionals and users who require precise control over the optical signal. Its compact size and ease of installation make it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.
