Data Sheet

Description
In the event of a primary optical path failure, the
optical switch protects fiber transmission links by
toggling to a redundant path. The switch position
is determined by an input TTL voltage, ROSA /
TNCS element management system, or by a
manual rocker switch located on the front panel.
The unit was designed to accept the TTL voltage
from other Laser Link products, such as receivers
or EDFAs.
Up to four individual optical switch components may be housed in and supported by a single one rack unit
chassis.
