Variable Fiber Attenuators

For Tanzanian site work, correct product selection should be followed by careful transport, connector inspection and retention of the fiber records. The variable attenuator series puts an adjustable, calibrated loss element between two connectors: an FC mechanical model covering 1-30 dB and an in-line SM/MM model covering 0-60 dB with LC/SC/FC/ST interface options. One instrument sweeps the values that would otherwise require a drawer full of fixed attenuators - the standard tool for receiver sensitivity testing and connection margin verification.

For Tanzanian backbone rollouts, set out attenuators in the commissioning kit; high-power transmitters on short restored routes overload receivers exactly when the layout is tightest.

Variable Fiber Attenuators

FC Single Mode Variable Fiber Optic Attenuator, 1-30dB
1-30db attenuation, variable, 1260-1620(sm)nm, ion-doped fiber element, factory tested.

LC/SC/FC/ST Variable Fiber Optic VOA In-Line Attenuator, SM/MM, 0-60dB
0-60db attenuation, 1310-1550(sm)/850-1300(mm)nm, ion-doped fiber element, factory tested.

Keep the attenuation figure and polish grade with the site records for future servicing.

Purchase and Factory Support

All attenuators in this series are optically verified before packing: attenuation figure, return loss and end-face condition are checked on every unit. State the attenuation figure, connector series, polish grade and body style with the request, and the factory confirms the specification with the quotation. For Tanzanian deliveries, the order details should include any site identification needed by the installation team.
