16X16 MEMS 3D MATRIX OPTICAL SWITCH
DiCon’s MEMS 3D Matrix Optical Switch is a proprietary optical switch structure
that allows any of the inputs to connect to any of the outputs in a fully non-blocking,
all-optical cross-connect configuration. This innovative design is based on DiCon’s
industry proven MEMS mirror technology and offers the same level of durability and
reliability that can be expected from any of the DiCon’s MEMS
fi
ber optic switch
solutions.
