1×2 Broad Wavelength Fiber Optical Switch: 100ns, 18dB On/Off

NHBW The NanoSpeed™ Series 1×2 solid-state fiber optic switch connects optical channels by redirecting an incoming optical signal into a selected output optical fiber. This is achieved using patent non-mechanical configurations with solid-state all-crystal designs, eliminating the need for mechanical movement and organic materials. The broadband series of we fiber optic switches is designed to meet the most operation requirements of wavelength band in addition to ultra-high reliability, fast response time, and continuous switching operation. This series of switches is intrinsically bidirectional and selectable for polarization-independent or polarization-maintain by the fiber type. The we Series switch is controlled by 5V TTL signals with a specially designed electronic driver having performance optimized for various repetition rates.

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

1×2 Broad Wavelength Fiber Optical Switch: 100ns, 18dB On/Off: Optical signal routing depends on preserving the optical budget through the complete path. The 1260~1620nm, 960~1200nm, 1750nm, 2000nm wavelength specification sets source and detector compatibility. The fiber/interface entry (SMF-28, HI1060, PM 1550, PM980, MM50/125, Special) must match the connected components.

Automated fiber test

1×2 Broad Wavelength Fiber Optical Switch: 100ns, 18dB On/Off: Automated fiber test depends on preserving the optical budget through the complete path. The 1260~1620nm, 960~1200nm, 1750nm, 2000nm wavelength specification sets source and detector compatibility. The fiber/interface entry (SMF-28, HI1060, PM 1550, PM980, MM50/125, Special) must match the connected components.

Optical interface and fiber
Fiber Type: SMF-28, HI1060, PM 1550, PM980, MM50/125, Special · Fiber Cover: Bare fiber, 900um loose tube, Special
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 and loss budget
Wavelength: 1260~1620nm, 960~1200nm, 1750nm, 2000nm
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.
