SC-LC Flange-Type Attenuator
The flange attenuator, also called adapter-type attenuator, has the same appearance as an ordinary adapter. Its principle is that an attenuation element is installed inside the adapter so that the connectors do not fully contact each other when mated, thereby achieving attenuation. Flange attenuators are suitable for attenuation connections between patch cords in optical fiber links. Flange attenuators are only applicable to connectors with PC-type ferrule endfaces, and are suitable for wavelengths in the range of 1250~1650nm.
