Attenuator, LC plug type, UPC, singlemode

A Fibre Attenuator is a device used in the field of optical communications, specifically designed to reduce the power level of an optical signal. It achieves this either by dispersing or absorbing the light without reflecting it. The attenuator is crucial in preventing the overloading of a receiver by a signal that’s too strong. Fibre attenuators are typically used in single-mode long-haul applications. They come in different forms, including fixed, variable, inline, or connector types, each serving another purpose depending upon the specific requirements of the optical network.

• LC Connectors: These connectors are often used in high-density network environments due to their small form factor. Their push-pull design ensures a secure connection, while their compact size allows for easy installation in tight spaces.
