This unit
The JDS Uniphase HA9108-SPL2 is a programmable optical attenuator for precise control of optical signal power in multimode fiber networks. It delivers attenuation across 750–1700 nm with variable range depending on wavelength band, ±0.15 dB accuracy, and remote control via GPIB or RS232. Designed for telecommunications and data center applications where signal integrity and repeatable attenuation are critical.

JDS Uniphase HA9108-SPL2 — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the JDS Uniphase HA9108-SPL2. Calibration covers attenuation accuracy at 5 or more set values across the full range (0 to rated maximum dB), attenuation linearity, wavelength-dependent attenuation at 1310 nm, 1490 nm, and 1550 nm, insertion loss at minimum attenuation (0 dB position), and polarization-dependent loss (PDL) where applicable. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common JDS Uniphase HA9108-SPL2 faults: motor and gear mechanism wear (attenuation steps or loss of smooth control), optical port contamination, EEPROM calibration data corruption. Most common faults are motor or gear mechanism wear on variable attenuators causing attenuation steps or loss of smooth control, optical port contamination reducing dynamic range, and EEPROM calibration data corruption on digitally controlled models.
