MEMS 1X4 SWITCH
DiCon’s MEMS 1x4 is based on a micro-electromechanical system
(MEMS) chip. The MEMS chip consists of an electrically moveable
mirror on a silicon support. A voltage applied to the MEMS chip
causes the mirror to rotate, which changes the coupling of light
between a common fiber and four input/output fibers. The MEMS
1x4 Switch is a non-latching device, which acts as a shutter when
electrical power is removed.

C serial control interface
Qualified to Telecordia GR-1221
APPLICATIONS
The MEMS 1x4 Switch is often used in channel or band monitoring cards
to reduce the size and cost of monitoring DWDM networks. Other applica-
tions include fiber-based sensing, side-select switching for redundancy
and secure communications, and bio-medical and scientific research.
Excellent reliability, repeatability and temperature performance makes the
MEMS 1x4 switch ideal for temperature and environmental sensing equip-
ment, as well as channel monitoring cards.
