Manufacturer Keysight
Category Attenuators
Availability Made to order

Overview

The Keysight 81571A is a variable optical attenuator module with an angled connector interface, designed for telecommunications and data communication system testing. Optimized for single-mode fiber (9/125 μm SMF28) in the 1200-1700 nm wavelength range, it delivers precise attenuation with excellent optical performance. The angled connector helps minimize back-reflections in test setups.

Key Features

  • Attenuation range: 0 dB to 60 dB
  • Wavelength flatness: less than 0.05 dB
  • High attenuation accuracy: less than 0.1 dB
  • Excellent repeatability: less than 10 mdB
  • High input power capability: up to 2 W
  • Low signal distortion with minimal PDL, PMD, and CD
  • Built-in shutter for power meter zeroing
  • Built-in calibration capability
  • Angled connector interface for reduced reflections

Applications

  • Telecommunications and data communication system testing
  • Optical component characterization
  • Bit error rate (BER) testing
  • Multi-wavelength optical network testing
