1x8 Fiberoptic Switch
(Protected by U.S. patents 7224860,6757101,6577430 and pending patents)
Product Description
The CL Series 1x8 fiber optical switch connects optical channels by
redirecting an incoming optical signal into a selected output fiber.
This is achieved using patented non-mechanical configurations and
activated via an electrical control signal. Latching operation
preserves the selected optical path after the drive signal has been
removed. The all solid sate CL 1x8 fiberoptic switch features low
insertion loss, high extinction ratio, high channel isolation, and
extremely high reliability and repeatability. It is designed to meet
the most demanding switching requirements of continuous operation
without failure, longevity, operation under shock/vibration
environment and large temperature variations, and fast response
time.
The switch also has build-in Circulator
and isolator functions. Electronic driver
is available for this series of switches.

Electrical Driving Information
Each switching point is actuated by applying a voltage pulse. Applying one polarity pulse, one
light path will be connected and latched to the position. Applying a reversed polarity pulse,
another light path will be connected and latched to the position after pulse removed.
