1X8 optical switch

Application fields of 8-channel wavelength 532nm mechanical optical switch

 

Working principle:
Mechanical optical switches switch incident light from one path to another by moving internal optical components (such as reflectors or fiber connectors) by electric or manual drive. This switching process is usually completed by a precise control system to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the switch.

Main features:
High precision: Due to the use of mechanical drive and high-precision optical components, mechanical optical switches usually have lower insertion loss and better stability.

Low power consumption: Compared with electronic switches, mechanical optical switches do not require additional power to maintain the switching state and only consume a small amount of power when switching.

High stability: Due to its simple structure and based on mechanical principles, mechanical optical switches are usually able to maintain high stability in harsh working environments.

Multi-channel support: Many mechanical optical switches are designed to support multiple optical channels (such as 1xN, NxN, etc.), making them flexible for different optical signal switching needs.

Slow response speed: Due to its mechanical structure, the response time of mechanical optical switches is usually longer than that of electronic switches, so they are mainly used in application scenarios that do not require extremely high speed.

The 8-channel wavelength 532nm mechanical optical switch is mainly used in application fields involving high-precision optical signal management, especially in the fields of optical communication, laser measurement and biological imaging. Its specific applications include:

Optical communication: In optical fiber communication systems, it is used for the selection and switching of multi-channel signals. In particular, it plays an important role in optical network switching, optical path reconstruction, and monitoring of optical fiber communication networks.

LiDAR system: In autonomous driving, drone navigation, ranging and three-dimensional modeling, 532nm wavelength laser signals are widely used for measurement. 8-channel optical switches can help switch different laser paths and improve detection efficiency.

Optical test and measurement: In laboratory testing and precision instruments, mechanical optical switches can switch different light sources or signal channels, especially in spectral analysis that requires multi-wavelength input.

Biomedical imaging: In medical imaging equipment, such as laser confocal microscopy or photoacoustic imaging systems, different optical signal wavelengths (such as 532nm) are used for different types of tissue imaging. Optical switches can dynamically select different optical signal channels for real-time imaging or analysis.

Laser material processing: In industrial applications such as laser cutting and welding, 532nm lasers are often used for high-precision processing. 8-channel optical switches are used to switch between multiple laser sources to increase process flexibility.

Optical sensing system: It can be used for multi-parameter, multi-channel optical sensing systems, allowing different sensor channels to be selected for simultaneous multi-wavelength monitoring.
