SC i-fiber optic attenuatoriyithuluzi lokungenzi lutho elisetshenziselwa ukunciphisa ukuphakama kwesignali yokukhanya ngaphandle kokushintsha kakhulu ifomu legagasi ngokwalo.Lokhu kuvame ukuba yimfuneko ezinhlelweni zokusebenza zeDense Wave Division Multiplexing (DWDM) kanye ne-Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) lapho umamukeli engakwazi ukwamukela isignali ekhiqizwe emthonjeni wokukhanya wamandla aphezulu.
SC i-attenuatorifaka uhlobo lobunikazi lwe-metal-ion doped fiber enciphisa isignali yokukhanya njengoba idlula.Le ndlela yokunciphisa ivumela ukusebenza okuphezulu kunezinhlaka zefayibha noma ama-fiber offset noma i-fiber clearance, esebenza ngokungaqondi kahle kunokumunca isignali yokukhanya.Ama-SC attenuators ayakwazi ukudlala ku-1310 nm naku-1550 nm ku-Single-Mode kanye ne-850nm ye-Multi-Mode.
SC ama-attenuatorsziyakwazi ukumelana nokukhanya okungaphezu kuka-1W kwamandla aphezulu isikhathi eside, okuzenza zifanelekele i-EDFA nezinye izinhlelo zokusebenza zamandla aphezulu.I-Low Polarization Dependent Loss (PDL) kanye nokusatshalaliswa kwe-wavelength ezinzile nokuzimele kuyenza ilungele i-DWDM.
