Optical Switches
Premium High Speed 1×1, 1×2, 2×2 Fiber Optical Switch: Dual Stage, 50ns, 30dB On/Off, 50kHz
The NS Premium Series fiber optic switch uniquely features low optical loss, fast response, high on-off extinction of 30dB, little drift, and high optical power handling. This is achieved using patented electro-optical configuration of clean fast response without ripples and temperature compensation in combination with compensating electro-optical control technology that significantly reduces drift to achieve a high on/off ratio at high speed. The switch is intrinsically bidirectional and selectable for polarization-independent or polarization-maintain by the fiber type. The NSP fiber optic switch is designed to meet the most demanding switching requirements of continuous operations over 25 years. The non-mechanical design provides ultra-high reliability and vibration insensitivity.

Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect Premium High Speed 1×1, 1×2, 2×2 Fiber Optical Switch: Dual Stage, 50ns, 30dB On/Off, 50kHz 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, PM980, MM50/125 · Fiber Cover: 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: 1060, 1310, 1550, 1625, 1750, 850
- 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.
