What is a mechanical optical switch?

Opto-mechanical optical switches (single-mode or multi-mode fiber optic switches) are passive components that selectively transmit an optical signal from a given input port to a given output port in a fiber optic transmission line.

High Quality Mechanical Optical Switch

Mechanical optical switches work by physically moving an optical fiber with the help of a mechanical device to redirect the optical signal. By moving the prism or directional coupler, the light from the input end is directed to the desired output port. 

Frequently Asked Question

Do you have any question?

Mechanical Optical Switches , Opto-Mechanical Optical Switches redirect optical signals by mechanically moving an optical fiber or bulk optical element. It performs various operations, allowing a signal to switch from one state to another. This type of fiber optic switch is usually driven by a stepper motor.
