Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the purpose of this attenuator?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is used to reduce the signal strength of a fiber optic connection, preventing damage or errors caused by signal power being too high for the receiver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this compatible with multimode fiber?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo, this attenuator is specifically designed for singlemode fiber applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I change the attenuation level?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo, this unit features a fixed attenuation level of 10dB.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the male-to-female configuration mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt means one end can plug directly into a female port (e.g., on a patch panel or transceiver), while the other end acts as a port to accept a male connector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does UPC mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUPC stands for Ultra Physical Contact, referring to the specific high-quality polish of the connector end-face.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fosco Connect","offers":[{"title":"Default
