BlueOptics glasvezel-verzwakker Singlemode LC/APC Simplex 11dB

The BlueOptics SFA21BM11 is a high-quality fixed fiber optic attenuator designed for Singlemode (SM) networks. It provides precise 11 dB attenuation with LC/APC connectors in a simplex configuration, ensuring reliable signal reduction in telecommunications, data centers, FTTx, LAN, and WAN applications.

Advantages

This attenuator offers excellent return loss (≥60 dB) and low polarization dependent loss (≤0.2 dB), ensuring minimal signal reflection and stable performance. Its metal housing provides durability for over 500 mating cycles, and it operates reliably across a wide temperature range (-40°C to +85°C).
