1x2 Multicasting Optical Switch

1x2 Multicasting Optical Switch

MSE Supplies offers 1x2 Multicasting Optical Switch. This series 1×2 Multicasting fiber optic switch connects optical channels by redirecting an incoming optical signal either into a selected output fiber or splitting it equally between the two output fibers. This is achieved using our patented non-mechanical configurations and activated via an electrical control signal. The latching operation preserves the selected optical path after the drive signal has been removed. The all solid state CL 1×2 Multicasting fiber optic switch features low insertion loss, high extinction ratio, high channel isolation, and extremely high reliability and repeatability. It is designed to meet the most demanding switching requirements of continuous operation without failure, longevity, operation under shock/vibration environments, large temperature variations, and fast response time. The switch also has built-in circulator and isolator functions. An electronic driver is available for this series of switches.
