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 are critical devices used in managing the intensity of optical signals in fiber optic communications. Key requirements include minimal effect on the beam profile, low wavelength and polarization dependence, and sufficient power handling capability. The attenuator circuit will allow a known source of power to be reduced by a predetermined factor, which is usually expressed as decibels.

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.
