(R)ND-200 Fixed Attenuators

Product information "(R)ND-200 Fixed Attenuators"

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

OZ Optics’ (R)ND-200 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 receptacle-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-200 series) or removable (RND-200 series). This provides great flexibility for experimentation.

Key Features:

  • Mode Independent Attenuation Level
  • Rugged and Compact Size
  • Receptacle Style
  • Removable Filter Versions (RND-200)
  • Wide Wavelength Range
  • Suitable for Multi Mode Fibers
  • Expanded Beam Technology for Flexible Design

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

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. Key Features: Compact, Rugged Housing High Resolution Wide Wavelength Range (350 to 2050 nm) Wide Variety of Connectors Available Polarization Insensitive Applications: CATV, LAN and Telecommunications Use; Receiver Padding; Test and Measurement; Optical Power Equalization
