MEMS MULTI-MODE 2X2 MATRIX SWITCH
DiCon’s MEMS Multi-Mode 2x2 Optical Matrix Switch is a true 2x2
optical switch. It has two fiber inputs and two fiber outputs and can
be switched to one of two configurations, shown below. This optical
switch utilizes DiCon’s proprietary MEMS technology to achieve re-
liable optical performance and excellent durability; DiCon’s Optical
Switches have been shown to last for over 1 billion switch cycles
and are qualified to Telcordia GR-1221 environmental standards.
