Single Mode (Cylindrical Ø3.5)

Our single mode MEMS MINI VOA is based on micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) technology. The MEMS chip consists of an electrically movable mirror on a silicon frame. By applying voltage to the MEMS chip, the mirror rotates, altering the optical coupling between the input and output fibers of the MEMS VOA.

Features
  • Proven MEMS durability and reliability
  • Ultra-compact size
  • Compliant with Telcordia GR-1073-CORE and RoHS requirements
  • Direct voltage control
Applications
  • Distributed power balancing in OADM, multiplexers/DMUX, band equalizers, and channel equalizers
  • Input power adjustment in EDFA (Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifiers)
