More Information

VIAVI Solutions / JDSU / Fitel VA4503-FPL Manual Variable Optical Attenuator Overview

Features:

  • Precision Attenuation
  • Two Calibration Wavelengths
  • Low Insertion Loss
  • Return Loss <60 dB
  • Very Long Battery Life
  • Portable for Field Use
The JDSU VA4 Series of manual variable optical attenuators are compact, portable instruments for field system testing as well as test and development in laboratory applications. They provide continuously variable attenuation range of up to 65 dB with calibration wavelengths of 830/1300 nm or 1300/1550 nm. Attenuation is set manually from the front panel at a 0.1 dB resolution. Unlike programmable attenuators, the attenuation level is maintained when the power is turned on or off. The attenuators use JDSU's ultra-linear attenuator prism and highly reliable microlens technology to produce accurate attenuation settings with low insertion loss and excellent return loss.

The display features a large-scale LCD readout, and the unit is powered by a long-lasting 9 V lithium battery for handheld operation in the field. Input and output ports are equipped with rear panel-mounted connector bulkheads, and all major connector types as well as the optional universal connector adapter (UCA) are available.

The JDSU VA4503-FPL Manual Variable Optical Attenuator may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
