Optical Switches
Ultra-Fast 1×1, 1×2, 2×2 Fiber Optical Switch: 10ns, 16dB On/Off, 1MHz
The NS Ultra-Fast Series (NF) fiber optical switch is based on our patented electro-optical configuration, featuring low optical loss, wide temperature operation, and polarization insensitivity. Our NS fiber optical switch has ultra-high reliability and can continuously operate for over 25 years in a vibration environment (passed Telcordia and space qualifications). The switch is bidirectional and available with configurations of polarization-independent or polarization-maintain. The rise/fall time is intrinsically related to the crystal properties, and the repetition rate is associated with the driver. The NF Series switch is mounted on an electronic driver having a 5V TTL control signal SMA input and a DC power supplier. There are poor frequency response sections in which the on/off ratio does not meet the spec due to the device’s mechanical resonances.

Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect Ultra-Fast 1×1, 1×2, 2×2 Fiber Optical Switch: 10ns, 16dB On/Off, 1MHz to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
- Optical interface and fiber
- Fiber Type: SMF-28, HI1060, HI780, PM1550, SM600, SM800, PM850, PM780, PM630, PM980, MM50/125, SM400, SM450, Hi980, SM1950, PM405, PM460, PM1950 · Fiber Cover: Bare fiber, 900um 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 and loss budget
- Wavelength: 1060nm, 2000nm, 1310nm, 1480nm, 1550nm, 1625nm, 1750nm, 780nm, 850nm, 650nm, 550nm, 450nm
- 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.
