1x8 Latching MEMS Fiber Optic Switch
This MEMS latch series 1x8 fiber optic switch redirects incoming optical signals into selected output fibers. The device uses thermally activated micro-mirror movements and latches to preserve the selected optical path after the drive signal has been removed.
Technical Specifications
Overview
High-Performance Optical Switching
The 1x8 Latching MEMS Fiber Optic Switch is designed to connect optical channels by efficiently redirecting incoming signals to selected output fibers. Utilizing a patent-pending MEMS configuration with thermal-activated micro-mirrors, it offers high stability and reliability without the need for complex rotation. Its latching capability ensures the optical path is preserved even after the drive signal is removed, simplifying system integration and reducing overall costs.
