COMMUNICATIONS COMPONENTS
2x2 High Speed Lithium Niobate Interferometric Switch
Key Features
• High polarization extinction
• Low drive voltage
• Low fiber-to-fiber insertion loss
• 1550 nm operation
Applications
• Nanosecond switching
The JDSU 2x2 Interferometric Switch is a high extinction, high speed switch.
Because the waveguides are polarizing, control of the input light polarization is
required. Switching speeds in excess of 1 ns are attainable. Input and output fibers
are polarization maintaining.
