As light in fibers often does not have a well defined polarization state, it is important that a fiber-optic attenuator exhibits only a minimum amount of polarization dependence. Generally, the obtained insertion loss has some dependence on the optical wavelength. For multimode devices, however, some loss difference is possible in conjunction with a mode dependence.

Standard attenuation values are 5, 10, 15, and 20 dB, available in SC, FC, ST, and LC connector styles. Using no air gap, filters, or light path discontinuities, attenuation is achieved by controlled absorption of light energy. OZ Optics offers a compact, rugged and low cost digital attenuator with high resolution, high speed, high attenuation range and high power han-dling (blocking technique only). The product range comes with extremely low return loss and high-quality ceramic ferrules that will deliver in the most demanding applications and ensure repeatable performance.

An optical attenuator, or fiber optic attenuator, is a device used to reduce the power level of an optical signal, either in free space or in an optical fiber. The basic types of optical attenuators are fixed, step-wise variable, and continuously variable. The power reduction is done by such means as absorption, reflection, diffusion, scattering, deflection, diffraction, and dispersion, etc.

Optical attenuators can take a number of different forms and are typically classified as fixed or variable attenuators. The Fiber Attenuators absorbs or scatters part of the optical signal, thereby attenuating the signal to a range suitable for reception, ensuring the normal operation of the fiber optic network.
