This unit
The JDS Uniphase MVOA-A1SS0 is a hot-pluggable Micro Variable Optical Attenuator module for the Multiple Application Platform (MAP) system. It delivers precise optical power control across the C- and L-bands with attenuation settings from 0 dB to 70 dB at 0.001 dB resolution. The module supports up to 16 independently controlled attenuators per MAP chassis, enabling high-density optical test configurations in laboratory and production environments.

JDS Uniphase MVOA-A1SS0 — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the JDS Uniphase MVOA-A1SS0. 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 MVOA-A1SS0 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.
