Attenuators boost optical connectors
Honda Connectors is extending its MU range of high-density optical interconnection systems with a range of fixed-value attenuators.
Honda Connectors is extending its MU range of high-density optical interconnection systems with a range of fixed-value attenuators Fitting between a standard MU-type plug and adapter, the LGA-S600 series is available in six attenuation values: 1, 3, 5, 10, 15 and 20dB
Tolerances range from +/-0.5dB for the smallest attenuator, up to +/-2.0dB for the 20dB version, while maximum wavelength dependence is characterised as between 0.5 and 1.5dB.
The devices conform to NTT specifications and are designed for use with 9.5/125SM optical fibres operating at frequencies of 1310nm or the 1510-1620nm range.
Return loss is 40dB or more at 1310nm, while maximum light input is +20dBm for 100h.
Performance and reliability are enhanced by the LGA-S600's metal housing, which ensures minimal bending.
