Product Overview:
The 81570A Keysight variable optical attenuator has the lowest insertion loss and excellent wavelength flatness over the entire attenuation range of 60 dB and is used to characterize optical network components for telecommunications and data communications in systems.
Features:
Attenuation range: 0dB to 60dB
High input power level: 2W
Wavelength flatness: < 0.05dB
High attenuation accuracy < 0.1dB
Repeatability < 10 mdB
Low signal distortion due to low PLD, PMD, and CD
Wide wavelength range: 1200nm to 1700nm (SM)
Built-in shutter for power meter zeroing
Built-in calibration function
Advantages:
High optical performance enables testing of transmission systems and components with minimal impact on the input signal
The unique combination of optical performance parameters gives you the flexibility to use and reuse modular attenuators in different Settings and applications
Integrated baffles protect test equipment and simplify reference and power meter zeroing without changing Settings
Enhanced internal calibration reduces uncertainty and speeds up calibration in multi-wavelength applications
