MEMS 1xN Optical Switch Module(MM)
Product Overview
An optical switch is a core passive optical component used to selectively switch optical signals from one port to another in fiber optic lines or integrated optical circuits, enabling physical on/off control or path routing of optical signals.
Based on different technical approaches, optical switches are mainly classified into mechanical optical switches (including relay type and motor type), MEMS optical switches, magneto-optic switches, electro-optic switches, thermo-optic switches, and silicon-based ultra-high-speed optical switches.
Fholink's MEMS 1xN optical switch can be packaged as a module. It is available in both single-mode and multi-mode fiber types, and the number of channels (N) can be customized according to user requirements.
