1x4 Fiber Optic Switch

Description: This 1 X 4 cross-connect optical switch is designed for network applications. It offers excellent insertion loss, repeatability and a wide operating temperature range.

The switch configurations are latched at both the on and off positions. Latching means that when you apply a momentary (>50ms) +5 - 12vdc signal the switch will change states and remain in that switched state even if power is removed. To reverse the switch position simply reverse the voltage between the Command and Control pins on the DB25 connector.

Switch come with 1 meter 900um buffered pigtails. Choice of Fiber Optic connector PC or APC.
