This unit

The JDS Uniphase MAPA+2370100FA is a single-mode optical attenuator module for precision signal attenuation in fiber-optic networks and test environments. This IA3 configuration integrates into the JDS Uniphase MAP Series platform, delivering stable, accurate optical power control across a broad wavelength range. The module supports 0 dB to 60 dB attenuation with 0.01 dB resolution, making it suitable for telecommunications, fiber optics testing, network simulation, and research applications.

Key Features

Fine-grained attenuation control: 0.01 dB resolution enables precise signal level adjustment across a 60 dB dynamic range.

Wide spectral coverage: 1200 nm to 1700 nm wavelength support accommodates S-, C-, L-, and U-band applications.

Low insertion loss: 1.5 dB typical insertion loss minimizes overall system loss.

High return loss performance: 60 dB typical return loss ensures minimal reflections.

Tight linearity specification: ±0.1 dB linearity provides predictable attenuation behavior across the full operating range.

Modular cassette design: Single attenuator cassette format integrates directly into MAP Series chassis.

Typical Applications

Telecommunications network testing and validation

Fiber optics component characterization

Optical network simulation and emulation

Research and laboratory measurement

Compatibility & Integration The MAPA+2370100FA integrates into JDS Uniphase MAP Series platforms, including the MAP Master Chassis (MAP+2M00) and MAP Benchtop system (MAP+2B00).

JDS Uniphase MAPA+2370100FA — Repair & Calibration Service

Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the JDS Uniphase MAPA+2370100FA. 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 MAPA+2370100FA 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.
