Product Categories for variable optical attenuator

Fiber Optic Attenuators - (189 companies)

Fiber optic attenuators are devices that reduce signal power in fiber optic links by inducing a fixed or variable loss. They are used to control the power level of optical signals at the outputs of light sources and electrical-to-optical (E/O) converters. They are also used to test the linearity and dynamic range of photo sensors and photo detectors

Optical Bandpass Filters - (76 companies)

Optical bandpass filters are designed to transmit a specific waveband.  They are composed of many thin layers of dielectric materials, which have differing refractive indices to produce constructive and destructive interference in the transmitted light

Neutral Density Filters - (65 companies)

Neutral density filters are designed to reduce transmission evenly across a portion of the spectrum. They are slightly sensitive to angles but they are much more forgiving than interference filters.

PIN Diodes - (40 companies)

PIN diodes are three-layer semiconductor diodes consisting of an intrinsic layer separating heavily doped P and N layers. The charge stored in the intrinsic layer in conjunction with other diode parameters determines the resistance of the diode at RF and microwave frequencies.
