Optical Power Leveler KI5010-APC (1270~1330 nm, APC)
A combined power meter, variable optical attenuator and set-point controller that provides automatic power levelling in one single-direction or bi-directional fiber transmission line.
Fitted to a 35 mm DIN rail, and provided with a 12 - 48V power supply, this is an easy, reliable and unique solution to transmission problems caused by varying receiver power levels. This is typically useful to solve issues in SDN or "white box" type installations.
No telemetry link is required. Please enquire for alternative optical configurations and specifications.
