JDS Uniphase HA097+21KFP1 HA9 9/125 Optical Attenuator with 50/50 Coupler and FC/HPC Front Bulkheads

The JDS Uniphase HA097+21KFP1 HA9 Optical Attenuator is a professional HA Series fiber optic attenuator configured for telecom, laboratory, production, and photonics test applications. This product description applies specifically to the HA097+21KFP1 configuration and uses only the configuration details identified by that exact part number.

The HA097+21KFP1 configuration is based on the HA9 optical attenuator model, which is specified for the 1200 nm to 1700 nm wavelength range. This unit is configured with 9/125 fiber, bulkheads on the front, FC/HPC connectors on all ports, a 50/50 coupler built-in front panel option, and the K return loss option rated greater than 45 dB. These configuration details are important for buyers replacing an existing attenuator or matching a specific optical test setup where model, fiber type, port style, connector type, built-in option, and return loss option must be correct.

Features and Benefits of the JDS Uniphase HA097+21KFP1 HA9 Optical Attenuator

The JDS Uniphase HA097+21KFP1 HA9 Optical Attenuator provides practical value for professional users who require a clearly defined optical attenuation configuration for fiber optic measurement and test workflows.

• HA9 optical attenuator model: Uses the HA9 model configuration, identified for 1200 nm to 1700 nm optical attenuation applications.
• 9/125 fiber type: Configured for 9/125 single-mode fiber optic test and measurement environments.
• Bulkheads on front: Uses the front bulkhead port configuration for convenient direct front-panel fiber connections.
• FC/HPC connectors on all ports: Uses the FP connector configuration, identified as FC/HPC for all ports.
• 50/50 coupler built-in option: Includes the built-in front panel option code 1, identified as a 50/50 coupler option for HA1 and HA9 models.
• K return loss option: Uses the K return loss configuration, rated greater than 45 dB for HA9 and HA9W models.
• Professional optical attenuation control: Suitable for controlling optical signal levels in telecom, photonics, laboratory, and production test environments.

Advanced Features and Practical Applications

The JDS Uniphase HA097+21KFP1 is intended for optical test environments where controlled attenuation is required across the HA9 wavelength range. Optical attenuators are commonly used to reduce optical signal power to defined test levels during receiver sensitivity testing, optical link simulation, calibration procedures, system verification, and optical component characterization.

The HA9 model supports the 1200 nm to 1700 nm wavelength range, making this configuration suitable for a broad range of fiber optic communications and photonics test applications. The 9/125 fiber configuration supports single-mode optical workflows, while the FC/HPC connector configuration provides a defined connector interface for compatible patch cables, optical sources, optical meters, receivers, and test equipment.

The front bulkhead configuration is practical for bench-top, rack-based, and laboratory optical test systems where direct access to the optical ports is useful. This front-panel layout can help simplify patching, troubleshooting, receiver testing, component characterization, and general optical power adjustment during everyday test workflows.

The 50/50 coupler built-in front panel option can be useful in optical test setups where an optical signal must be split into two equal paths for monitoring, comparison, distribution, or testing. Because this is a configuration-specific attenuator, buyers should verify that the built-in 50/50 coupler is required for the intended measurement setup before purchase.

Because HA Series optical attenuators can be configured in many different ways, this listing should be used only for HA097+21KFP1. Other HA Series model numbers may use different base models, fiber types, port locations, connector types, return loss options, or built-in front panel options. Matching the exact configuration is important for maintaining compatibility with existing test procedures and optical setups.

Typical Applications

The JDS Uniphase HA097+21KFP1 HA9 Optical Attenuator is suitable for professional applications such as:

• Fiber optic attenuation control
• Single-mode optical test setups
• Telecom optical network testing
• Optical receiver sensitivity testing
• Laboratory optical power adjustment
• Photonics component characterization
• Optical link simulation
• Optical signal splitting with 50/50 coupler configuration
• Production and engineering test workflows
• Service, repair, and replacement equipment requirements

Optical Attenuator Applications

The JDS Uniphase HA097+21KFP1 HA9 Optical Attenuator can be used in professional optical test environments where controlled signal attenuation is required across the HA9 wavelength range. This type of attenuator is commonly used to set optical power levels, simulate fiber link loss, support receiver sensitivity testing, and help characterize optical components under repeatable test conditions.

With its 9/125 single-mode fiber configuration, FC/HPC connector interface, front bulkhead layout, 50/50 coupler built-in option, and K return loss option rated greater than 45 dB, this configuration is intended for users who need the exact HA097+21KFP1 setup. The front bulkhead arrangement can be useful in bench-top or rack-based systems where fast access to the optical ports is preferred.

Buyer Considerations

The JDS Uniphase HA097+21KFP1 is a configuration-specific optical attenuator. Buyers should confirm that the HA9 1200 nm to 1700 nm model, 9/125 fiber type, front bulkhead port layout, FC/HPC connector configuration, 50/50 coupler built-in front panel option, and K return loss option rated greater than 45 dB match the intended optical test setup before purchase.

This description applies only to the HA097+21KFP1 configuration. It should not be used for other HA Series attenuators with different model numbers, fiber types, connector types, port arrangements, return loss options, or built-in options.
