Tyco Electronics’ high performance
Build Out Attenuators utilize a unique
all-fiber construction to absorb the
optical signal.
By employing a Tyco Electronics’
technology, the design minimizes
reflectance, attenuation tolerance
and PDL while maximizing reliability,
environmental stability, and power
handling. There are no filters, air
gaps, or core mismatches.
