Optronics Passive Overview

Optronics Passive

Attenuators

Optronics Single Mode Attenuators, are used in Communication systems to reduce optical power, launched onto photo detectors. These high performance devices are designed to give accurate attenuation over a wide range of wavelengths. The plug type configuration, allows you to use directly on the ends of the fibre jumpers and to insert directly in to the adapter.

Available in FC and SC connector styles, having PC / APC finish with ultra low return loss. Optronics Attenuators, comes to you from a world class manufacturing facility backed by 20 years of experience in manufacturing fibre optic passive & active devices. Products coming out of this facility have found worldwide applications in Computer networking, Telecommunications and Cable TV.
