LightBend™ Dual Mini 2x2 Bypass MM Optical Switch

SKU: LMDB

The LB Series Dual Mini 2×2 Bypass multimode OptoMechanical Fiberoptic switch integrates 2 simultaneously activated 2×2 Bypass switches in a single compact format. The device connects optical channels by redirecting incoming optical signals into selected output fibers. This is achieved using a patented optomechanical configuration and is activated via an electrical control signal. Latching operation preserves the selected optical path after the drive signal has been removed. The switch has integrated electrical position sensors. This novel design significantly reduces moving part position sensitivity, offering unprecedented high stability as well as an unmatched low cost. The switch is bidirectional.

We offer a tight-bend-fiber version, which reduces the minimum bending radius from the normal 15 mm to 7 mm. This feature enables a smaller overall footprint.
