The Agilent/Keysight 81001FF is a fixed diffraction filter that attenuates optical signals across a broad wavelength range, preventing overload of sensitive optical power meters when measuring high-power sources. The mesh diffraction filter provides approximately 10 dB of attenuation with excellent flatness across its operational band. Two units can be cascaded to achieve ~20 dB attenuation. Polarization dependent loss is minimal at 0.05 dB peak-to-peak, and the filter integrates directly with 815xxx and 816xxx series optical heads and related adapter components.
