Optical Switches
LightBend™ 1xN High Power Fiber Optic Switch
The LBHS Series 1×N Fiber Optic Switch enables high-power optical routing by directing an input signal to a selected output fiber through a precision motor-driven mechanism. The switch achieves fast switching times of less than 5 ms and low insertion loss ~0.3dB. The LBHS is broadband and uncoated, with transmission characteristics equivalent to bare optical fiber. It supports all fiber types and can handle up to 100 W CW optical power when paired with large-core fibers. The switch is bidirectional and offers multiple control interfaces, including TTL, USB, RS232, GPIB, and Ethernet. Note: GPIB and Ethernet interfaces are available only in the 1U rack-mounted configuration.
