AFR's MEMS Optical Switch is based on an electrostatic drived micro-electro-mechanical-system (MEMS) chip. The MEMS chip consists of a tilting mirror to change light coupling between input and output fibers.The components are characterized with low insertion loss, high return loss, excellent environmental stability and reliability. The optical swtich has been widely used in fiber optics communication equipment, fiber instruments, and fiber sensing to switch channels.
The Polarization Maintaining Tap Isolator combines a tap coupler and polarization sensitive isolator into a single compact package. It has high extinction ratio and very low insertion loss. The PM Tap Isolator is ideal for fiber amplifier and fiber optic system where signal monitoring is required.
The (2+1)×1 Multimode Pump and Signal Combiner enables highly efficient combining of the powers from 2 multimode pump diodes and a signal beam from the signal fiber into a double clad output fiber. The Pump & Signal Combiner is also available for different fiber types.
The Planar Lightwave Circuit Splitter is based on unique silica glass waveguide process. It features excellent optical performance with low insertion loss, low PDL, high return loss over a wide wavelength range from 1260 nm to 1620 nm. It is used in FTTx Systems, LAN, WAN and Metro Networks, Analog Passive Optical Networks, CATV Networks and other applications in fiber optics systems.
