OLA-54/55 Handheld Optical Level Attenuators

Product information "OLA-54/55 Handheld Optical Level Attenuators"

Fiber Type SM, SM APC, MM; 750 to 1650 nm; Connector Type ST, SC, FC, DIN, LC; Attenuation up to +20 dBm, +23 dBm

Viavi Solutions’ OLA-54/55 series of SmartClass optical level attenuators are future-proof, improved variable attenuators for fiber system testing as well as installation, maintenance, and production of multi mode fibers (OLA-54) and single mode fibers (OLA-55).

The OLA-54/55 series reduce testing time with a quick start operation, requiring no warm-up time. They provide excellent overall accuracy in use with hundreds of calibrated wavelengths, reduce the need for couplers or additional instruments in test setups and minimize insertion loss due to a special optical design.

OLA-54/55 optical level attenuators can be part of a SmartClass optical test kit that contains all of the tools, including instruments and accessories, necessary to perform professional-grade power or loss tests in the field.

Key Features:

  • Robust, Shock-proof, and Splash-proof Design for Field Operation
  • USB Port for Remote Operation
  • Absolute and Relative Attenuation Setting
  • 40 Gbps Ready due to Low Differential Group Delay
  • Traceable Measurements to NIST/PTB Standards for Confidence in Accuracy
  • 600 (OLA-54 ) and 400 (OLA-55) Adjustable Wavelengths
  • Long Battery Operation Time of >1000 h

Applications: Emulate Fiber Loss for Testing System Dynamics; Simulate Line Loss for BER Testing and Amplifier Testing (OLA-55); System Installation and Maintenance of Multi Mode Fiber (OLA-54) and Single Mode Fiber (OLA-55)
