Solid-State VOA
(patents pending)
Product Description
The SS Series Variable Fiber Optic Attenuator provides electrical control of
optical power. The patent pending non-mechanical configuration
eliminates all mechanical movement and organic materials. The SS Series
Variable Optical Attenuators are designed to meet the most demanding
operation requirements of ultra-high reliability and fast response time
with minimal mechanical footprint. The SS Series VOA is particularly
suitable for continuous power regulating operations and optical transient
suppression, as well as analog signal modulation applications.
The SS Series VOA is available in opaque configuration.
