Specifications

   Description:
  • An SC/UPC Fixed Optical Attenuator (5dB) is a passive fiber optic component designed to reduce the optical power by a fixed amount—in this case, 5 decibels (dB). It uses an SC connector with Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) polish for low insertion loss and excellent return loss. This attenuator is commonly used in Optical Network Units (ONU) and other fiber optic devices to protect sensitive receivers from high optical power levels and ensure proper signal strength.
   Features:
  • Fixed 5dB Attenuation: Consistent power reduction by 5 decibels to safeguard ONU equipment.
  • SC/UPC Connector: Standard connector with ultra physical contact polish ensures minimal back reflection and low insertion loss.
  • Low Insertion Loss: High-quality components keep insertion loss outside of attenuation to a minimum.
  • High Return Loss: Typically = 55 dB, minimizing reflections back into the fiber network.
  • Compact and Durable: Small size with a robust housing suitable for field and lab use.
  • Wide Wavelength Range: Supports typical telecom wavelengths like 1310 nm and 1550 nm.
  • Easy to Install: Plug-and-play with standard SC/UPC connectors.
