Optical Switches
The MEMS Series Ultra-Mini 1×2 Reflective Fiber Optical Switch connects optical channels by redirecting incoming optical signals into selected output fibers. This is achieved by using a proprietary thermal activated micro-mirror, moving-in and -out optical paths, uniquely featuring high stability over wide temperature range without compensation, small size and very long life cycle. The ultra-mini Reflective switches are configured in 1×1 and 1×2 with single or multimode fibers. The Ultra-Mini switches are Telcordia standards GR1221 qualified. We provide customized design and modular assemblies to meet control and integration applications.

Application context
Application guidance is tied to the configured wavelength, fiber interface and optical-budget fields for this family.
MEMS Ultra-Mini 1x2 Reflection Fiber Optical Switch – 1D: Optical signal routing depends on preserving the optical budget through the complete path. The 1060 nm, 1310 nm, 1550 nm, 780 nm, 850 nm, 1310/1550 nm, 850/1310 nm, 1260~1620 nm wavelength specification sets source and detector compatibility. The fiber/interface entry (SMF-28, MM 50/125, MM 62.5/125) must match the connected components.

Technical FAQ
Fiber Type: SMF-28, MM 50/125, MM 62.5/125 · Fiber Cover: 900 um tube. 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: 1060 nm, 1310 nm, 1550 nm, 780 nm, 850 nm, 1310/1550 nm, 850/1310 nm, 1260~1620 nm. 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.
Share your wavelength, fiber type, connector, power handling and control requirements and we will qualify the matching configuration and part number.
