SCBU

SCBU: Customizable fiber optic switch and Non-blocking Matrix up to 16×16
 
Sercalo’s fiber optic SCBU NxM switches are bidirectional opto-mechanical switches based on coaxial design where a matrix of MEMS mirrors redirects light from N inputs to M outputs. The optical networks can be based on a strictly nonblocking matrix (from 4×4 up to 16×16 ports) or on a tree structure (up to 1×1116 ports).

The miniature package withstands rugged environments and is well suited for direct mounting on printed circuit boards.

The underlying MEMS technology results in low insertion loss and low cross-talk between channels while keeping a constant switching performance over life. The hermetically sealed MEMS and the laser welded collimators guarantee broad temperature range and superior long term stability. The part is designed to conform to Telcordia 1221 reliability standards. No epoxy is present in the optical path.
