16C MPO Single-Mode Attenuation 0 to 10dB Plug Type Optical Attenuator

Brief Introduction

The 16C MPO variable attenuator is a Male to Female multi-fiber attenuator designed for high-density applications. It features precision MPO/APC connectors on both ends, enabling direct plug-and-play integration between patch cords and equipment without additional adapters. Integrated precision micro-optics within the ferrules provide accurate and consistent attenuation across all 16 channels. By adjusting the thumb wheel, optical signal power can be precisely reduced from 0 to 10 dB in incremental steps. Inserting this attenuator into an optical link effectively protects sensitive transceivers and components from damage caused by excessive optical power while maintaining signal integrity.

Features

1.High attenuation accuracy (±0.5 dB to ±1.0 dB) with flat spectral response across 1260-1650 nm.
2.Low insertion loss and excellent return loss (≥55 dB MPO/APC).
3.Robust aluminum housing ensures superior stability and durability.
4.Easy-to-use thumb wheel adjustment with male to female direct connection.

Applications

1.Precise optical power attenuation in 16-fiber MPO/MTP links for transceiver protection.
2.Power level debugging and calibration in data centers, 5G networks, and PON systems.
3.Signal attenuation in high-density cabling systems, distribution frames, and patch panels.
4.Optical transceiver validation and link margin evaluation in laboratory environments.
