1x12 Non-Latching Single Mode MEMS Optical Switch

The etMEMS Series 1x12 Fibre optic switch connects optical channels by redirecting incoming optical signals into selected output fibres. This is achieved using a patent pending MEMS configuration and activated via an electrical control signal. It uniquely features rugged thermal activated micro-mirror movement instead of rotation, eliminating the temperature compensation.
