Hi 780nm wavelength mechanical optical switch

Optical switches are devices used to switch and control optical signal paths in optical fiber communications, optical networks, and other optical systems. Mechanical optical switches switch optical signal paths physically, usually using tiny mechanical structures or optical elements such as mirrors, optical fiber arrays, etc., to control the switching of optical paths based on mechanical movements. Hi 780nm wavelength mechanical optical switch, as the name implies, has an operating wavelength of 780 nanometers, which is a near-infrared wavelength and is commonly used in communications, sensing, and other fields.

Features
Wavelength adaptability
780nm is in the infrared band and is usually suitable for optical fiber communication systems with high transmission efficiency. Optical signals of this wavelength have good transmission characteristics in most optical fibers, so it can be ensured that the signal will not be significantly attenuated or distorted during the operation of the optical switch.

High-precision switching
Mechanical optical switches rely on high-precision mechanical movements to switch signal paths, which can provide relatively stable and precise control. This makes it particularly suitable for application scenarios that have high requirements for optical path switching accuracy.

Low insertion loss
High-quality mechanical optical switch designs can maintain low insertion loss during signal switching, which is critical for high-bandwidth, low-signal-attenuation applications.

Stability and reliability
Due to the use of mechanical motion components, mechanical optical switches generally have high stability and reliability. The performance of optical switches usually does not degrade significantly over long periods of use.

High power resistance
Mechanical optical switches can withstand higher optical powers, so they can be used in more complex optical systems, especially for high-power laser systems or optical communication networks with high data rates.

Customizability
Hi 780nm mechanical optical switches are highly customizable in design, and their switching speed, insertion loss, number of channels and other parameters can be adjusted according to specific needs to meet the needs of different scenarios.
