No-light-source fiber optic switch
It offers unparalleled advantages, including nearly lossless transmission of about 0. 01 dB with special order), broad wavelength operation from 200 nm to 4000 nm, minimal back-reflection, no distortion to the mode properties for multimode transmission . Controlled by piezoelectric actuators, our fiber switches have no internal optical components and therefore avoid any form of optical aberration. The highly reliable MEMS technology is characterized by a long lifetime, high reliability, and high durability (max 3 x 10 9 cycles), making these suitable for use as OEM components. The simplest device is an on/off switch with one input and one output, which allows. The Fiber-Fiber™ Series of optical switches directs light propagation continuously without interruptions or distortions. Nevertheless, it has slower speed and larger wavelength dependent loss than the SW or SL types.
