4X4 Optical Switch-2

Product description

Lightwave Link Inc. 4×4 bypass optical switch (BOSW) provides channel selection between a pair of input fibers and output fibers. The switch is a compact device suitable for a wide range of applications; for example, optical networking system protection, measurement system, route diversity, reconfigurable add/drop module. The latching mechanism ensures the optical switch status remains in the selected state during power failure. Lightwave Link Inc. 4×4 bypass optical switch fully complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU.
