BB-100/400/500/700-11 Variable Optical Attenuators

Product information "BB-100/400/500/700-11 Variable Optical Attenuators"

Blocking, Pigtail Style; Fiber Type SM, MM, PM; 350 to 2050 nm; Connector Type NTT-FC/PC, ST, SC, LC/PC, other; Attenuation up to 80 dB

OZ Optics’ BB-100/400/500/700-11 series of compact PC board mountable blocking pigtail style variable attenuators with low backreflection are designed to meet Telcordia standards. These attenuators can be used for 1300 nm and 1550 nm as well as for C, L and S bands, with minimal changes in the insertion loss. Mounting holes provide easy attachment to PC boards and patch panels. The mounting hole patterns and attenuator sizes can be modified to meet customer requirements

The attenuators consist of two collimating lenses, prealigned for optimum coupling efficiency. A threaded radial screw is used to block the collimated beam between the two lenses. Because the attenuator works by directly blocking the beam, it is polarization insensitive. A seal cap is used to seal the junction against temperature and humidity effects. The attenuator can even withstand immersion in water for extended periods of time. Variable attenuators are offered with single mode, multi mode, or polarization maintaining fibers.

Key Features:

  • Rugged and Compact Size
  • Wide Wavelength Range
  • Single Mode, Multi Mode and Polarization Maintaining Fiber Versions
  • Low PDL and Wavelength Dependency
  • High Power Handling

BB-200 Variable Optical Attenuators
Blocking, Receptacle Style; Fiber Type SM, MM, PM; 350 to 2050 nm; Connector Type (Receptacle) NTT-FC/PC, ST, SMA 905, SC; Attenuation 2 dB to 80 dB OZ Optics’ BB-200 series of blocking receptacle style variable attenuators consist of two baseplates with lenses. The two baseplates are aligned for optimum coupling efficiency using a patented alignment technique. A threaded radial screw is used to block the collimated beam between the two lenses. Rotating the screw changes its position within the collimated beam, thus varying the power level coupled into the receiver fiber. Because the attenuator works by directly blocking the beam, it is polarization insensitive. Because of limitations in receptacle tolerances, receptacle style attenuators are not recommended for single mode or polarization maintaining applications requiring low losses and good repeatability. Instead, please refer to the OZ Optics BB-100/400/500/700-11 series of blocking pigtail style variable attenuators.
