(R)ND-11 Fixed Attenuators

Product information "(R)ND-11 Fixed Attenuators"

Pigtail Style, Optional Removable Filter; Fiber Type SM, PM, MM; 440 to 1625 nm; Connector Type NTT-FC/PC, ST, SC, LC, MU, other; Attenuation 5 to 30 dB

OZ Optics’ (R)ND-11 series of expanded beam style neutral density fixed attenuators are ideal for multi mode applications and for applications where attenuating fibers are not available or usable. These pigtail-style attenuators provide mode independent fixed attenuation when used with multi mode fibers. The insertion loss will not depend on how the light is launched into the fiber. This is a significant advantage over other attenuator designs.

The attenuators consist of a set of collimating and focusing optics and a central baseplate containing the filter. The expanded beam design permits higher power handling than plug style attenuators. The filters themselves can be either permanent (ND-11 series) or removable (RND-11 series). This provides great flexibility for experimentation.

Key Features:

  • Mode Independent Attenuation Level
  • Rugged and Compact Size
  • Pigtail Style
  • Removable Filter Versions (RND-11)
  • Wide Wavelength Range
  • Single Mode, Polarization Maintaining, and Multi Mode Fiber Versions
  • Expanded Beam Technology for Flexible Design

Applications: CATV, LAN and Telecommunications; Receiver Padding; Test and Measurement; Optical Power Equalization; Research & Design

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.
