Compact 1x4 Optical Switch Based on Multi-Port Technology Platform

Avanex Corporation has announced the availability of its 1x4 Optical Switch platform. Avanex's single stage micro-optic switch design is based on Avanex's patented multi-port technology, which enables 4-port optical switching in a compact form factor.

Multi-port technology is a generic platform that combines the functionality of multiple devices into a single device, and provides space savings. The single stage design enables low-loss (typically less than 0.4 dB) compared to traditional cascaded architectures. The product is available in latching and non-latching versions with optional built-in power monitoring.
