2x2 Prism Switch

DiCon's 2x2 Prism Switch provides channel selection between a pair of input fibers and a pair of output fibers. Actuated electrically and operating independently of data rate and signal format, the component uses a moving prism between fixed collimators. DiCon's 2x2 Prism Switch can be built with Corning SMF-28, Flexcor 1060 or Polarization Maintaining Panda fiber.

Applications:

  • 2x2 Prism Switches with Corning SMF-28 fiber can be used for protection switching or in reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexing modules.
  • 2x2 Prism Switches with Panda fiber can be used to switch between light sources which use polarization maintaining fiber pigtails.
  • 2x2 Prism Switches with Flexcor 1060 fiber can be used to switch between different 980 nm pump laser sources.
