Attenuation [dB]

Attenuation [dB]Santec’s MEMS based attenuator is available in avariety of specifications for any DWDM application.
Optical properties are excellent with low PDL. Santec's
tilting mirror design coupled with laser welded
packaging ensures a reliable, stiction-free device. Silicon
MEMS devices are robust, withstanding repeatedswitching, wide temperature changes and mechanicalshock without failure. Operational stability andlong-term reliability are ensured with Telcordia
compliant packagings.
