How We Designed the Low Profile Optical Switch Differently

  On the previous blog we specifically spoke about the differences between optical switches and mechanical switches. Simply put, an optical switch differs from a mechanical switch in that they use light for actuation instead of a metal to metal connection, which enhances the speed and act way faster than [ Continue reading…]

The Knowledge of Optical Switch

Optical networking technology has grown rapidly and helped solve the problem of increasing demand for higher transfer data rates and bandwidths. In optical networks, optical fiber is the fundamental medium of transmission, but functions like switching, signaling and processing are accomplished electronically. To achieve conversions between optical signals and electrical [ Continue reading…]

How to test fiber optic splitters or other passive devices

A fiber optic splitter is a device that splits the fiber optic light into several parts by a certain ratio. For example, when a beam of fiber optic light transmitted from a 1X4 equal ratio splitter, it will be divided into 4-fiber optic light by equal ratio that is each [ Continue reading…]

What is a PLC Splitter and How Does a PLC Splitter Work?

What is PLC Splitter? PLC splitter known as Planar Lightwave Circuit is used for dividing one or two light beams to multiple light beams uniformly or combining multiple light beams to one or two light beams. It has a passive component with special waveguide made of planar silica, quartz, or [ Continue reading…]

What Is an Optical Attenuator?

  An optical attenuator decreases the strength of an optical signal passing through it to a fiber optic cable or open air. The intensity of the signal is described in decibels over a specific distance the signal travels. It is the strength, or amplitude of the signal that changes and [ Continue reading…]

What is the application of Optical Circulator?

An optical circulator is a special fiber-optic component that can be used to separate optical signals that travel in opposite directions in an optical fiber, analogous to the operation of an electronic circulator. An optical circulator is a three-port device designed such that light entering any port exits from the [ Continue reading…]
