The 60-850 and 60-851 are LXI conformant fiber optic multiplexers that use MEMS
switching technology to ensure fast and reliable switching of single-mode (60-850)
or multi-mode (60-851) optical signals being carried on fiber connections. The
60-850/851 is available with a variety of connector options and in a variety of
multiplexer arrangements.
Multiplexer configurations offered are single 8 channel, dual 8 channel, single
16 channel and single 32 channel. Each configuration can be supplied with FC/APC,
SC/PC, LC or SC connector types – allowing users to select exactly the model that fits
their connection standard. A dual 4 channel version is also available, supporting only
multi-mode fiber and with LC connectors. Multiplexer versions are also available with
a Loop-Thru connection allowing easy expansion.
All configurations use a MEMS based mirror system that ensures fast switching, long
operating life and repeatable insertion loss and isolation characteristics.
MUX Control
The 60-850/851 is fully LXI conformant
through a 1000Base-T Ethernet
connection and is supplied with IVI
drivers and Direct I/O drivers to allow
programmatic control of the optical
switches. A built in soft front panel
can be accessed through any web
browser to provide manual control of
the multiplexers in a simple and intuitive
way. Controlling the 60-850/851 at long
distances could not be simpler, and
control can even be gained using links
including wireless access points for true
control mobility.
