LC Plug-Type Attenuator

The LC SM plug-type attenuator is a compact male-to-female unit which provides a stable attenuation (from 1 to 30 dB) at both 1310nm and 1550nm transmission windows. These high performance attenuators are compliant with IEC 60869-1 and fully compatible with all LC connectors and adapters.
