1×4 PM Solid-State Fiberoptic Switch

Product Details

Product Description

The μs-series 1×4 solid-state fiber optical switch connects optical channels by redirecting an incoming optical signal into a selected output optical fiber. The switching of the optical light is realized by utilizing Faraday Effect.

This is achieved using a patent protected non-mechanical configuration with solid-state all-crystal design which eliminates the need for mechanical movement. The μs-series fiber optic switch is designed to meet the most demanding switching requirements of reliability, durability, response, and continuous high frequency switching operation.
