Variable Optical Attenuators
High Speed Premium Variable Fiber Optical Attenuator 350-2400nm, 35dB
The Nano-Speed Premium Variable Fiber Optical Attenuator (NPOA) provides fast electrical control of optical power. It utilizes special electro-optic crystals that feature lower driving voltage, faster response, and broader wavelength coverage compared to the standard NSOA. This is achieved through a patented configuration activated by a voltage electrical control signal. The solid-state optical crystal design eliminates mechanical movement and organic materials, ensuring high reliability and fast response with minimal mechanical footprint. The NPOA Series Variable Optical Attenuators are designed to meet the most demanding operational requirements, offering ultra-high reliability and fast response times, as well as vibration insensitivity. We also provide customized electronic designs to meet special control requirements and applications.

System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect High Speed Premium Variable Fiber Optical Attenuator 350-2400nm, 35dB to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
- Optical interface and fiber
- Fiber Type: SMF-28, HI1060, HI780, PM850, PM1550, PM980 · Fiber Cover: 900um Tube, Benchtop
- Specify connector polish and fiber architecture together. FC/PC, FC/APC and SMA interfaces, and single-mode, multimode and polarization-maintaining fibers, impose different return-loss, mode-field and alignment requirements.
- Wavelength and loss budget
- Wavelength: 1550nm, 780nm, 850nm, 1310nm, 1060nm
- Check the Variable Optical Attenuators passband, insertion loss, return loss and power handling at the actual source wavelength; a nominal telecom-band label is not a substitute for the configured range.
