This unit

The JDS Uniphase HA97E-19KSC1 is a programmable optical attenuator delivering precise control of optical signal power across telecommunications, data networking, and laboratory environments. Part of the HA9 Series, this instrument combines extended attenuation range with high resolution and repeatability, making it essential for power meter calibration, component characterization, and system validation where accurate attenuation control is critical.

Technical Specifications

Attenuation Range: Extended range up to 100 dB

Resolution: 0.01 dB nominal

Repeatability: ±0.01 dB

Accuracy: ±0.1 dB typical (±0.15 dB in some configurations; accuracy varies outside calibrated wavelength ranges)

Wavelength Range: 1200–1700 nm standard; 750–1700 nm available for specific models

Wavelength Dependence: <±0.05 dB over 1530–1625 nm

Polarization Dependent Loss: Typically 0.03 dB

Maximum Input Power: 1000 mW (30 dBm)

Return Loss: High; internal reflections better than 60 dB with cavity effects virtually eliminated

Fiber Options: Single-mode or multimode configurations

JDS Uniphase HA97E-19KSC1 — Repair & Calibration Service

Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the JDS Uniphase HA97E-19KSC1. 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 HA97E-19KSC1 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.
