MEMS MULTI-MODE 1XN OPTICAL SWITCH
DiCon’s Multi-Mode MEMS 1xN Optical Switch is an industry
proven fiber optic switch with excellent durability and reliability.
It allows channel selection betweeen a single input fiber and N
output fibers, and can be specified for any 1xN size from 1x2 up
to 1x24. In addition, this optical switch is bi-directional and can be
used in either a 1xN or Nx1 direction.
