PXI Optical Switching

Higher performance and longer operational life

  • Comprehensive Range of Optical Multiplexers and Insert/Bypass Switches
  • MEMS Switching Technology offers High Reliability and Fast Operating Speed
  • Single and Multi-mode Versions
  • FC/APC, FC/PC, SC/PC, MU (mini SC) or LC Connector (Single-mode Versions)
  • SC or ST Connectors (Multi-mode Versions)
  • Kernel, VISA and IVI Support For PXI Environments & Kernel and IVI Support For LXI Environments

Pickering's range of PXI optical switching modules include high performance multiplexers and insert/bypass switches. MEMS (Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems) switch technology offers higher performance and longer operational life compared to conventional prism based optical switching.

We can offer most optical connectors in both single-mode and multi-mode. If the combination of fibre and connector you require does not appear in the list below, please contact your local sales office for a quote.

Switch Type

EMR - Electro-Mechanical Relay, cost-effective, medium power switching. Reed - reed relays, excellent low-level switching, fast, long life. Solid-State - very fast, indefinite life, high power switching, but high leakage and insertion loss.

Banks

The number of independent switch topologies on a single module.

Channels

The number of discrete channels in a single topology.

Connector Type

Function

Required switch topology.

Mode

Single-mode or multi-mode depending on the diameter of the fiber used.
