MEMS-based, Pigtail Style, Reflection Mode; Single/Dual Types; Fiber Type SMF28; 1240 to 1640 nm; Attenuation up to 30 dB Sercalo Technology’s VXP series of miniature MEMS variable optical attenuators (VOAs) comes in a very small package and is ideally suited for integration in subsystems, where cost, size and performance are the most critical factors. The non-latching attenuators work in reflection mode and allow for continuous adjustment of the attenuation with a 0 to 5 V control voltage. The VXP variable optical attenuators are composed of an optical subsystem and an electrical driver interface. The highly reliable attenuation mechanism is based on a micromechanical shutter - a silicon MEMS chip, on which a mirror can be moved in and out of the optical path by electrostatic actuation – and features below 20 ms response time and below 1.0 dB insertion loss. The VXP series of miniature VOAs is available in single (VXP1) and dual (VXP2) variants. The plastic package is one of the smallest in the industry and optimized for low cost production while maintaining high reliability comparable to a solid-state device. The component is designed to meet Telcordia 1221 quality standards.The standard VXP attenuator achieves minimum insertion loss at 0 V input voltage. When power is removed, the insertion loss is roughly 0.5 dB higher than the minimum insertion loss (at 0 V when power is on). Key Features: Small Size (23 x 10 x 6 mm) Low PDL Very Fast 0 to 5 V Control Single or Dual Channel Applications: Power Management in DWDM Transceivers; Amplifier Gain Control; Optical Subsystems; Array Integration

1x4-1x36; Fiber Type SM, MM, PM; 1250-1670 nm; Typ. Insertion Loss 0.4, 1 dB; Adjacent Port Isolation >50 dB; Switching Time 0.5 ms With the FOS-1000 series, OZ Optics now provides turnkey, rack-mountable optical switches with built-in electronics and color touch screen. The switch is offered in a 1x4 to 1x36 configuration. It can be customized with two independent optical switches in one rack mount. The standard units are configured with 9/125 um single mode (SM) fiber for broad operating wavelengths covering 1250 nm to 1670 nm. These switches are built using mature and highly reliable MEMS technology, achieving a low insertion loss and high channel isolation. The FOS-1000 fiber optic switches have been tested over millions of switching cycles with no change in losses. They are ideal for test instruments. FOS-1000 systems come with a USB interface port. Systems with polarization maintaining (PM) fiber or multi mode (MM) fiber can be offered on a case-by-case basis using different mechanical switch technologies. Contact AMS Technologies with your specific product requirement.

Non-latching; 1x2 to 1x32; Fiber Type SM, MM; 1240 to 1640 nm; Insertion Loss 0.5 to 2.5 dB; Crosstalk 60 dB; Switching Time 1 to 20 ms Sercalo Microtechnology’s SW series are very fast, opto-mechanical switches based on the MEMS technology. These non-latching MEMS switches available both for single mode (SM) and multi mode (MM) fibers in 1x2, 1x4, 1x8, 1x13, 1x16, 1x32 and 2x2 configurations. All SW series 1xN components are designed to establish an optical connection between one optical port and either one of up to 32 input or output lines in a very short time, while the 2x2 variants are designed for optical cross connect switching in single mode (SM) or multi mode (MM) fiber networks. Powered by a 5 VDC supply voltage, the SW series switches allow to control the switching state with a 5 V TTL or CMOS drive signal. The switching mechanism offers the reliability of a solid state device; it neither wears out nor degrades over time. Even after billions of cycles the switching quality stays constant. The SW series’ highly reliable switching mechanism uses integrated micromirrors, features fast switching times down to below 1 ms for some models and shows only 0.5 to 2.5 dB insertion loss. With its MEMS switching structure, the SM series of fiber optic MEMS switches achieves repeatability of 0.001 dB and shows a very flat insertion loss over the full spectrum of the fiber. The miniature package withstands rugged environments and is well suited for direct mounting on printed circuit boards. The SM switch series is qualified according to Telcordia GR 1221 and mainly used in test and measurement applications.
