User manual | MEMS Singlemode 1xN Optical Switch Size 2 (Array, Up to 5 switches)

MEMS 1XN OPTICAL ARRAY SWITCH
DiCon’s MEMS 1xN Optical Array Switch provides channel
selection between sets of single input fibers and sets of N output
fibers. The module allows up to five MEMS switch components
to be co-packaged with the option of switching synchronously. At
the core of each switch component is DiCon’s proprietary MEMS
chip; an electrostatically driven mirror implemented using singlecrystalline silicon and a stiction-free design. The mirror is capable
of rotating on two axes, allowing the input light to be redirected
back to any desired output in a 2D space. The array switch is bidirectional and can be used as a Nx1 selector switch.

1. Specifications are without connectors.
2. IL is measured at CWL, 23oC.
3. IL is for standard opaque model.
4. IL is for single-band. Dual-band adds 0.1 dB.
5. Power off isolation is same as crosstalk.
6. WDL is measured in a +/- 20nm range at 23oC.
7. PDL is for single-band. Dual-band adds 0.05 dB.
8. Repeatability is defined after 100 cycles.
