dicon's mems on-off switch is based on a micro-electro- mechanical system (mems) chip. the mems chip consists of an electrically movable mirror on a silicon support. a voltage applied to the chip causes the mirror to rotate, which changes the coupling of light between the input and output fibers of the mems on-off switch. features ? small on-off switch package ultra low current consumption available in opaque or transparent versions qualified to gr-1221 available in both cylindrical and 14-pin dip package applications mems on-off switches are used for distributed power equalization within oadms, mux/dmuxes, band equalizers, channel equalizers, optical cross-connects, line cards and transponders. mems on-off switches can also be used for gain tilt and input power adjustment in erbium-doped fiber amplifiers. u.s. patented. specifications subject to change. copyright ?2005 dicon fiberoptics, inc. all rights reserved. mems on-off switch switches cylindrical package
