0-25dB Single-Channel Mini MEMS Variable Optical Attenuator

The FT-3956 from F-tone Networks is a single-channel mini MEMS variable optical attenuator for dynamically configurable optical networks. Based on electrostatic MEMS technology, a movable mirror on the silicon chip controls the tilt angle with the applied voltage, coupling the input beam onto the output fiber at the desired attenuation level. It provides 0 to 25 dB attenuation with a 5 V drive voltage over 1260 to 1620 nm. Maximum insertion loss is 0.7 dB and polarization dependent loss stays within 0.15 dB. The hermetically sealed miniature package measures 16 x Phi5.4 mm, operates from -5 to 70 degrees C and consumes only 10 mW.
