OSW42XX&MSW42XX
Optical Switch
OSW42XX and MSW42XX optical switches have extremely low loss, compact size and fast switching speed. The equipment supports USB and LAN interfaces, provides instruction set and callable dynamic link library, facilitates the development of automatic test system, and is widely used in automatic testing of optical components and subsystems. Optical switch can avoid repeated connection in the measurement process of automatic test equipment, which is crucial to the automation process. Low IL and PDL and high repeatability ensure that the switch has the least influence on the measurement accuracy. A typical use case is 1×4 switch switching between multiple instruments, such as power meter, DCA or BERT.
- Compact – Compact structure, support touch screen operation
- High precision – Fast and precise setup for increased throughput
- Low insertion loss – Ultra-low insertion loss and superior optical performance
- Rich communication interface – Support LAN and USB remote control, provide API interface
