Sercalo Microtechnology’s DOUBLE and QUAD 2X2 rack-mountable bypass switch modules are fiber optic switches based on the MEMS technology. The switching mechanism offers the reliability of a solid state device; it neither wears out nor degrades over time. The components are designed to meet Telcordia 1221 quality standards.

Sercalo Microtechnology’s DOUBLE and QUAD 2x2 bypass switches are powered by a 4.75 to 5.25 VDC voltage on the supply pin. It comes with latching (option A) or non-latching (option B) fiber optic switches.

To set the state of a switch, a logic level high must be applied to the correspondent pin for at least 20 ms (latching, option A) or continuously (non-latching, option B). All the control pins must remain at a defined potential during use. A capacitive sensor allows reading out the switch position. The sensor’s output is a pulled-up collector, low (0 V) in cross and high (5 V) in bar state.
