MPS-2500 Singlemode
Variable Optical Attenuator
Description
The use of the MPS-2500 Singlemode Variable Optical Attenuator
(VOA) is critical whenever optical system loss budgets need to be
varied to compensate for wavelength dependant losses, perform bit
error rate (BER) testing and enhance optical receiver performance
in the presence of high power levels. The MPS-2500 VOA is an adjustable
attenuator that offers some great performance features over competing
VOA’s. Specifically, the MPS-2500 does not utilize any form
of air-gap in the optical pathway. This ensures optimum system return
loss and attenuation vs. wavelength flatness. Our Variable Optical
Attenuator offers multi-wavelength capability to support WDM, CWDM
and DWDM network applications with an attenuation range up to 40
dB. The MPS-2500 is made exclusively with Corning fiber and connectors
for superior performance. In addition to the standard inset flathead
screw, our VOA has a thumbscrew that can be used to adjust attenuation.
This makes adjusting the attenuation in a tight spot nearly effortless
and reduces the chance of damaging a surrounding component with
a screwdriver.
The MPS-2500 Singlemode Variable Optical Attenuator (VOA) is available
with 250 µm bare, 900 µm buffered or 3mm jacketed fiber
leads and can be supplied with or without connectors. Every assembly
meets Telcordia standards, is tested for insertion and return loss,
and is supplied with an individual test record sheet. Below is a
