Variable Attenuator Patch Cords (V)

Variable Attenuator Patch Cords provide a compact and simple means for manually adjusting optical signals in fiber optic systems and test sets. When mated to a standard connector, the variable attenuator connector causes the optical signal to become attenuated by creating a variable air gap between the connector ferrules. Attenuation is adjusted by means of a self-locking screw mechanism. Available in both singlemode and multimode fiber.

Variable-Atten-Patch-V

Variable Inline Attenuator (I)

Similar to the variable attenuator patch cord, except a standard fiber optic patch cord is attached to the variable attenuator connector side. This assembly has an advantage over the attenuator patch cord by allowing mateability with any industry standard connector without sacrificing return loss performance. Available in singlemode and multimode fiber.
