Fiber optic attenuators are devices which reduce (attenuate) the strength of a fiber optic signal within a fiber optic network. Attenuators are usually used when the signal arriving at the receiver is too strong and hence may overpower the receiving elements parameter SC, FC, ST, LC, MU, ST End-face APC/UPC/PC Mode Single mode & multi mode Sleeve Zirconia ceramic, phosphor bronze Insertion loss (dB) 0.2 Exchangeability (dB) 0.2 (connect randomly) Tensile strength (dB) 0.2 (0~100N) Vibration (dB) 0.2(5~50Hz, 1.5mm amplitude) Temp.
