FCi-fiber optic attenuatorsisixhobo esisetyenziselwa ukunciphisa i-amplitude yomqondiso wokukhanya ngaphandle kokutshintsha ngokuphawulekayo ifom yamaza ngokwayo.Oku kudla ngokuba yimfuneko kwi-Dense Wave Division Multiplexing (DWDM) kunye ne-Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) izicelo apho ummkeli akakwazi ukwamkela umqondiso owenziwe kumthombo wokukhanya wamandla aphezulu.
FC isithomalalisibonisa uhlobo lobunikazi lwe-metal-ion doped fiber enciphisa umqondiso wokukhanya njengoko idlula.Le ndlela yokunciphisa ivumela ukusebenza okuphezulu kunee-fiber splices okanye i-fiber offsets okanye i-fiber clearance, esebenza ngokungahambi kakuhle kunokuba ibambe isignali yokukhanya.I-FC attenuators iyakwazi ukusebenza kwi-1310 nm kunye ne-1550 nm ye-Single-Mode kunye ne-850nm ye-Multi-Mode.
FC abancedisiziyakwazi ukumelana nokukhanya okungaphezulu kwe-1W yamandla aphezulu okuvezwa kokukhanya ixesha elide, okwenza ukuba zifaneleke kakuhle kwi-EDFA kunye nezinye izicelo zamandla aphezulu.I-Low Polarization Dependent Loss (PDL) kunye nokusabalalisa okuzinzile kunye nokuzimela kwe-wavelength kwenza kube lula kwi-DWDM.
