Condition: Used — in good working condition, tested and within specification.
The Viavi JDSU OLA-55 is a singlemode fibre optical level attenuator supporting an adjustable wavelength range of 1260 to 1650 nm in 1 nm increments, with calibrated wavelengths at 1300 nm, 1310 nm, 1550 nm, and 1625 nm. It supports testing of systems up to 40 Gbps and features a maximum permitted input level of +23 dBm. The unit uses a 9/125 µm singlemode fibre type and offers bi-directional operation with both absolute and relative attenuation display modes. Total attenuation accuracy is ±0.8 dB with a repeatability of ±0.1 dB.

The Viavi (formerly JDSU) OLA-55 is a high-performance singlemode fibre optical attenuator designed for field and laboratory use in the installation, maintenance, and testing of singlemode optical networks, including systems operating up to 40 Gbps. It supports bit error rate testing (BERT) applications and is used to emulate fibre loss for system dynamics testing.
The OLA-55 features the SMARTWheel for precise manual attenuation adjustment, the SMARTStar graphical user interface for intuitive operation, and the SMARTEnergy power management system delivering over 1000 hours of battery life. Measurements are traceable to NIST/PTB standards, and the instrument is built to withstand demanding field environments with a shock-proof, splash-proof enclosure.
