Voa touch screen Display VsD
Polatis introduces the powerful new touch screen line of
OPM/VOA Optical Switch Tray (VSD) products with built-in
optical power monitoring and VOA capabilities.
The VSD product enables stand-alone front panel operation
of all major switching functions, without the need for network
connectivity or external devices. Operated through an
intuitive page-driven graphical user interface, the front panel
allows setting and viewing port connections, recalling stored
switch connection patterns, setting the switch IP address,
viewing port optical powers, and setting attenuation levels.
The VSD product provides remote and local operation, and
is ideal for both network and test environments. In pro-
duction and system test environments, the VSD delivers
automated, high quality test capabilities. In networks, the
VSD permits central office operators the ability to locally ac-
cess fiber connections for service provisioning and restora-
tion, and interrogate or attenuate optical power on individual
links.
Like all Polatis products, the VSD offers the highest per-
formance and reliability, with ultra-low insertion loss and
minimal optical impairments. The full range of Polatis’ high
performance single-mode optical switch matrices are avail-
able in the VSD platform.
Directlight
®
technology
The VSD products are based on the patented DirectLight
beam-steering technology, setting the benchmark for
reliable, high performance optical switching.

All parameters are measured excluding connectors at 1550nm and 20°C with an unpolarized source
after thermal equalization unless stated.
1. Measured using a 3 patch-cord method as defined in TIA/EIA-526-14A.
2. With APC connectors return loss >70dB without connectors.
3. Switch will operate on dark fiber.
4. Dynamic range for extended temperature is –20 to +24dBm.
5. Calibrated range for optical power monitors; switch operable over 1260-1625nm.
6. At zero attenuation.
7. When output power is within OPM dynamic range.
8. For stability at various levels of attenuation please contact Polatis for further details.
9. Maximum absolute humidity equivalent to 85% at 40C.
10.Long term storage within +10C to +35C, <40% RH to preserve display performance.
Partially populated VOA & OPM options also available. Call for details.
The performance characteristics of the switch trays vary
according to the fiber count.
