General description of the
used AGILENT 8156A
for sale.
The HP 8156A Optical Attenuator can be used in both single- and multimode applications. Each optical attenuator is calibrated over its entire 60 dB range at 1310 and 1550 nm. In addition, wavelength characteristics of the instrument are stored in an EEPROM. This allows an automatic correction to be performed for every wavelength and attenuation setting. The Agilent 8156A enables you to attenuate any optical signal up to 60 dB in precise steps over its entire wavelength range. A resolution of 0.001 dB lets you achieve the exact signal power required for your measurement with a repeatability of better than 0.005 dB. Maximum input power is +23 dBm. The Agilent 8156A is available with three different return loss options ranging from 35 dB to 60 dB. The HP 8156A can be used as calibrated and programmable back reflector to check the increase in bit error rate or noise performance as a function of the back reflection level. During your bit error rate measurements you may want to monitor the power level at the receiver input. Instead of using a separate coupler, the HP 8156A offers a built-in 13 dB coupler as an option. Specifications. Attenuation range is 60 dB with 0.001 dB resolution. Wavelength: 1200 nm to 1650 nm. Fiber type: 9/125 µm SM (opt. 100, 101, 121, 201, 221), 50/125 µm MM (opt. 350).
