BlueOptics Singlemode glasvezel-verzwakker LC/APC Simplex 15 dB

The BlueOptics SFA21BM15 is a high-quality singlemode fiber optic attenuator designed to reduce optical power in fiber optic networks. With a precise attenuation of 15 dB and LC/APC connectors in a simplex configuration, it ensures reliable signal management for telecommunications, CATV, and data center applications. Manufactured to meet stringent industry standards, this attenuator provides excellent return loss and low polarization dependent loss, making it ideal for high-performance optical systems.

Advantages

This attenuator offers exceptional durability with over 1000 mating cycles, ensuring long-term reliability. Its APC polish minimizes back reflection, critical for high-speed and analog transmission. The metal/plastic composite housing provides robust protection, while compliance with RoHS and CE standards guarantees environmental and safety conformity.
