Figure-1 Handheld Variable Optical Attenuator
SUN-VOA100-H
SUN Telecom’s SUN-VOA100-H Handheld Variable Optical Attenuator (VOA) is capable of adjusting the output attenuation in steps of 0.05dB over a wide attenuation range of 2.5dB to 60dB. In addition, this fiber optic variable attenuator provides the low insertion loss, high return loss, wide attenuating wavelength range and excellent attenuation accuracy needed in a variable fiber optic testing system.
SUN-VOA100-H is also user-friendly testing equipment; operator needs to adjust the attenuation only by simply rotating the rotary knob, beside it, the attenuator will memorize the attenuation value and the attenuation step after power off; after the attenuator powered on, it will invoke the data from the memory, and restore the system to the previous power off state.
- Features:

- 4 single mode calibration wavelength: 1310, 1490, 1550, 1625nm
- 10 minutes auto-power off
- Restoring the system to the previous power off state when powered on
- Low minimum insertion loss
- Interchangeable connector: SC, ST, FC
- Compact size, rugged and light weightt
- Applications:
- Maintenance in Telecom
- Maintenance in CATV
- Fiber Optic Research and development Labs.
- Other Fiber Optic Projects
