SW Series Fiber Optic MEMS Switches

Non-latching; 1xN, 2xN, NxM; Fiber Type SM, PM; 1250 to 1670 nm; Insertion Loss 0.4 to 2.5 dB; Crosstalk 60 dB; Switching Time 5 to 10 ms Sercalo Microtechnology’s co-axial fiber optic MEMS switches are available in 1xN, 2xN and NxM configurations. Their compact design offers a very low size and lower cost than standard switches. Nevertheless, it has slower speed and larger wavelength dependent loss than the SW or SL types. These co-axial switches are non-latching: at power-off they break the optical connection, and routing of ports is not defined. They are based on a strictly non-blocking bidirectional architecture, i.e. the common port can be used as input or output of the light signal. The underlying MEMS technology results in low insertion loss and low crosstalk between channels while keeping a constant switching performance over life. The hermetically sealed MEMS and the laser welded fiber collimators guarantee broad temperature range and superior long-term stability. No epoxy is present in the optical path. The series of co-axial fiber optic MEMS switches is compliant to Telcordia 1221 reliability standards and RoHS requirements 2015/863/EU. Sercalo Microtechnology’s SC type co-axial 1xN and 2xN fiber optic switches are based on a design where a single MEMS mirror redirects light from a common fiber to one of N ports. The miniature packages withstands rugged environments and is well suited for direct mounting on printed circuit boards. These switches are available in four different variants to simplify integration in existing systems and reduce development cost: standard size – ribbon fibers (SC); miniature size – small driver board: 7 x 40 mm (mSC); compatible with industry pinout, 900 um sleeved fibers and connectors (rSC); bare optical component (bSC). Sercalo Microtechnology’s SCBU type co-axial NxM fiber optic switches are based on a design where a matrix of MEMS mirrors redirects light from N inputs to M outputs. The optical networks can be based on a strictly nonblocking matrix (from 4x4 up to 16x16 ports) or on a tree structure (up to 2x540 ports).

4-32 Channels; Power Handling ≤2 W; Fiber Type SM, MM, PM; 350-2050 nm; Connector Type NTT-FC/PC, ST, SC, SCA, LC/PC, Other; Attenuation ≤60 dB OZ Optics offers compact and rugged multichannel digital attenuators with high resolution, high attenuation range, and high power handling (blocking technique only). OZ Optics’ MCDD-100 rackmount digital multichannel attenuators are 19” 3U rack modules. These attenuators have low insertion loss, low backreflection, low PDL and flat wavelength response. They can be calibrated for up to four wavelengths for each attenuator, for C or L bands. Alternatively, the unit can be calibrated for a continuous range. By using interpolation between the calibration wavelengths, the unit is capable of providing accurate attenuation levels over a continuous, broad range of wavelengths. OZ Optics’ MCDD-100 multichannel attenuators are ideal for use in bit error rate testing, troubleshooting receivers and other active fiber optic components, power meter linearity checks, simulating long distance fiber transmission, and power setting. A computer interface allows users to access or remotely control the unit through a PC. The built-in power meter and power stabilization function lets you set and maintain the output power stability even when the input power fluctuates. You will get reliable and repeatable test results, each and every time. OZ Optics provides attenuators that use either single mode (SM), multi mode (MM) or polarization maintaining (PM) fiber. In general, OZ Optics uses polarization maintaining fibers based on the PANDA fiber structure when building polarization maintaining components and patch cords. However, OZ Optics can construct devices using other PM fiber structures. OZ Optics carries some alternative fiber types in stock, so please contact AMS Technologies our for availability. If necessary, OZ Optics is willing to use customer supplied fibers to build devices.
