Description

The Cisco 15216 5 dB LC/UPC fixed attenuator is a passive optical accessory from the 15216 family, listed by Cisco for the Network Convergence System 2000 Series. It is used to reduce optical power at receivers or between optical line system ports, helping to keep signal levels within the range an optical interface can tolerate.

This variant provides a fixed 5 dB of attenuation in a bulkhead female-female format with LC/UPC connectors for single-mode fibre. Siblings in the range cover 2, 3, 7, 10, 12, 15 and 18 dB, so the 5 dB value is what separates this SKU from the others. Being a passive device, it needs no power.

It suits LC-connectorised optical ports and patchcords such as the 15216-LC-LC series, and is intended for Cisco NCS 2000 and 15216 optical networks where receive power needs to be balanced.
