As optical passive devices, FS attenuators are mainly used in fibre optic to debug optical power performance & optical instrument calibration correction & fibre signal attenuation to ensure the optical power in a stable and desired level in the link without any changes on its original transmission wave.

Product Highlights
5dB LC/UPC Male to Female Singlemode Fiber Attenuator, Fixed Type
Fiber optic attenuators can reduce the power level of an optical signal. They are often combined with an active system component to maintain a desired signal strength in fibre network.
Zirconia Ceramic Ferrule
Precision polishing for reduced back reflection
Protective Dust Cap
Prevent the attenuator from dust and keep it clean
Plastic Material Clip
Allow for easy snap-in installation without tools
The attenuators are built with metal-ion doped optical fibre which can provide stable 5dB attenuation levels as to prevent optical overload at the receiver.
Fiber optic attenuators are usually used to test the power level margins in a fibre optic communication system, and properly match transmitter and receiver optical signal levels.
