compliance
The JDSU next-generation miniature opto-mechanical (MOMEX) switch is a
single component that provides high reliability under demanding central office
and uncontrolled environments. Also, it is GR-1221 qualified.
Collimated beam optics, an epoxy-free optical path, and a specially designed mirror
and moving prism mechanism enable excellent performance characteristics.
Directly mountable on printed circuit boards, the MOMEX switch is equipped
with status contacts to provide an electrical readout of the switch position.
