Optical Switches
Our optical routers achieve ultra-low latency, which has not been attainable by electronic routers. The 1U system multicast incoming optical signals and dynamically re-directs them into multiple output ports with built-in optical MEMS switches and amplifiers. These switches are controlled via Ethernet-GUI or RS232-GUI. The fiber output ports are located in the front panel.

We confirm the exact part number for your configuration on enquiry.
Input: 1 · Output: 12 · Wavelength: 1310 · Latency: 20ns · Package: 1U · Control: RS232 · Power Supply: 12V DC · Connector: FC/PC · Interface Code: Non
Application context
Application guidance is tied to the configured wavelength, fiber interface and optical-budget fields for this family.
Ultra-Low Latency Multicast Switch Multi-Port Output: Optical signal routing depends on preserving the optical budget through the complete path. The 1310, 1550, Special wavelength specification sets source and detector compatibility. The fiber/interface entry (FC/PC, FC/APC, SC/PC, SC/APC, ST/PC, LC, Duplex LC, Special) must match the connected components.

Technical FAQ
Connector: FC/PC, FC/APC, SC/PC, SC/APC, ST/PC, LC, Duplex LC, Special · Interface Code: Non, Python, LabVIEW. Specify connector polish and fiber architecture together. FC/PC, FC/APC and SMA interfaces, and single-mode, multimode and polarization-maintaining fibers, impose different return-loss, mode-field and alignment requirements.
Wavelength: 1310, 1550, Special. Check the Optical Switches passband, insertion loss, return loss and power handling at the actual source wavelength; a nominal telecom-band label is not a substitute for the configured range.
Control: RS232, USB, Ethernet · Power Supply: 12V DC, 48V DC, 110~220V AC, Special. Match supply voltage, analog or digital command range, connector pinout and default optical state to the instrument interlock. Confirm the unpowered state explicitly — it decides what happens to the link on a power failure.
Share your wavelength, fiber type, connector, power handling and control requirements and we will qualify the matching configuration and part number.
