Lightwaves2020 is one of the few fibre optic component manufacturers to bring to market the benefits of using Liquid Crystal technology in VOA components. Our proprietary device structure and laser-welded packaging guarantees the simplified assembly with high alignment accuracy and reliability. There is no moving part during the adjustment process. Lightwaves2020's LC VOA offers many advantages including static charge resistance, continuous tuning, low PDL, high attenuation, low WDL and ripple, voltage controllability, and low power consumption. It is also capable of high power handling, the critical parameter for optical amplifier applications. Due to our LC VOA's innovative design and high manufacturing standards, it is extremely stable and insensitive to vibrations of nearly all frequencies and mechanical shock.
