NxN Ultra-Fast Optical Switch Modules and Subsystems
The nano-second speed PLZT optical switch subsystem is equipped with a
MZ type PLZT switch module designed for 1550 nm wavelength range, single
mode fiber ports, and a TTL controllable high-speed driver. Enclosure
case mount option is available.

<Advantages>
Thanks to its efficient electro-optic properties and high refractive index.
EpiPhotonics' unique PLZT waveguide technology enables a new generation
of efficient optical switch subsystems with potent advantages such as;
- Ultra-fast switching (10 ns)
- Low driving voltage (5V~10V)
- Bidirectional
- Low insertion loss
- Low polarization dependence
- Low power consumption
- Compact size
In addition, the PLZT products are very reliable and environmentally stable.
The crystal structure of our PLZT materials and the fact that our optical
switches have absolutely no moving parts guarantee high reliability and
stability.
- High reliability (high-power laser admissive)
- Environmentally stable
<Applications>
EpiPhotonics' high-speed and low-power consumption products provide the
key differentiators for many optical switching applications such as;
- Optical packet switching (OPS)
- Optical burst switching (OBS)
- On-demand ROADM
- On-demand crossconnects
- Switched optical access networks
- Optical interconnections (data center networks, server backplanes)
- High-speed protections
- Switched delay lines (phased array antennas, optical buffering)
