Difference between Fiber Optic Attenuation and Fiber Optic Adapter

The fiber optic attenuator is used for the input optical power attenuation, to avoid distortion of optical receiver due to the super input optical power.

Fiber adapter, also known as the flange or fiber optic connectors, is the connecting parts of optical fiber active connectors. The products include: FC SC ST, LC, MTRJ, which is widely used in optical distribution frame (ODF), fiber optic communications equipment. It is of superior performance, stable and reliable.

Main features:

Fibers are connected by opening casing of the adapter, to ensure the maximum connectivity between the patch cord. In order to be fixed in all kinds of panel, a variety of fine fixed flanges are also designed.
Transform adapter can connect different types of patch cord interface, and provide a connection, double or multi connection between the APC interface, which improve the mounting density.
