Specifications

   Description:
  • The SC/UPC Variable Optical Attenuator is an adjustable passive device designed to precisely control and reduce the power level of an optical signal in single-mode fiber networks. Featuring an SC connector (standard square connector) with Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) polish, this VOA allows users to dynamically vary attenuation levels, typically from 0 dB up to a maximum attenuation (often 30dB or more). It is essential for testing, troubleshooting, and optimizing fiber optic communication systems by regulating signal power to avoid receiver saturation and improve system performance.
   Features:
  • Variable Attenuation Range: 0 dB to typically 30dB (or customizable)
  • Connector Type: SC/UPC (standard square push-pull interface)
  • Polish Type: UPC (Ultra Physical Contact) for low back reflection
  • Fiber Type: Single-mode fiber compatible
  • Operating Wavelength Range: 1260nm – 1650nm
  • Return Loss: = 55 dB (UPC)
  • Insertion Loss: Low, typically = 0.5 dB (excluding attenuation)
  • Compact & Lightweight: Easy to integrate into patch panels and field equipment
  • Mechanical Life: Durable design for repeated adjustments
  • RoHS Compliant: Environmentally safe manufacturing
