Description
Overview
GAOTek Fixed Optic Attenuator 15 dB (Male to Female Variation Scale 0 ~ 30 dB) is mainly used in communication systems to reduce optical power launched onto the photo detector and provides an accurate attenuation over a wide range of wavelengths. The plug type configuration allows them to be used directly on the end of a patch cord, which in turn can insert directly into an adaptor. It is available in FC, SC, LC, ST and MU connector styles with PC or APC polished providing the ultra-low return loss. This compact attenuator has low back reflection and high power endurance.
Features
- Accurate attenuation
- Broad wavelength band
