CrystaLatch™ 1x2 High Power Series Fiber Optic Switch – >10W

CLPH, CLHB, CPHB The CL 1×2 High Power (>10W) series Switch connects optical channels by redirecting an incoming optical signal into a selected output fiber. This is achieved using patented non-mechanical configurations and activated via an electrical control signal. Latching operation preserves the selected optical path after the drive signal has been removed. The all High Power fiberoptic 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 environment, and large temperature variations, and fast response time. The switch also has build-in Circulator and isolator functions. Electronic driver is available for this series of switches.

Application context

Why this design is used

Application guidance is tied to the configured wavelength, fiber interface and optical-budget fields for this family.

Optical signal routing

CrystaLatch™ 1x2 High Power Series Fiber Optic Switch – >10W: Optical signal routing depends on preserving the optical budget through the complete path.. The fiber/interface entry (SMF-28, PM 1550, PM 1310) must match the connected components.

Automated fiber test

CrystaLatch™ 1x2 High Power Series Fiber Optic Switch – >10W: Automated fiber test depends on preserving the optical budget through the complete path.. The fiber/interface entry (SMF-28, PM 1550, PM 1310) must match the connected components. The Single Stage, Dual Stage dynamic specification sets the usable control bandwidth.
