Setting Attenuation and/or Power Levels

How to Set Attenuation

Before applying an attenuation factor, set the Attenuator module to the

appropriate wavelength.

8157xA modules

The instrument utilizes a filter technology with a very low wavelength

dependence. Nevertheless, for the best possible accuracy:
• If the source is of a particular wavelength, set the Attenuator module to

that wavelength.

• If the source is a multi-wavelength DWDM signal, set the Attenuator

module to the weighted wavelength of the spectrum.

Figure 135

on page -220 shows an attenuation factor

of 4.000 dB

applied to a 1550nm source.

Figure 135

Attenuation factor set to 4.000 dB
