Description
Overview
GAOTek Fixed Optic Attenuator 5 dB (Build out SC / FC) is designed to be used in both lab and commercial applications to reduce the optical power light in the systems with build out type attenuator. It supports Build out type attenuator with SC, FC, LC and ST type port. This device consists of SC single mode female to male connector and single mode female to female connectors. It helps to connect SC fiber optic pigtail or patch cables to reduce the power of signal in some certain attenuation. It provides premium ceramic sleeves and the plug type SC fiber attenuator which is a female to male type, while the bulkhead SC fiber attenuator is a female to female type.
Features
- Long-term Reliability
- SC, FC, ST, and LC connector (Ultra & Angled Polish)
- Polarization insensitive
