The JDS Uniphase HA9/HA097+20KSU1 is an extended-range programmable optical attenuator engineered for precise attenuation control across broad wavelength spans. It delivers up to 100 dB of attenuation at 0.01 dB resolution with ±0.1 dB accuracy, supporting input power levels to 200 mW. The instrument operates across 1200–1700 nm (standard) or 750–1700 nm (optional), with wavelength dependence under ±0.05 dB across the C-band.
