All parameters are measured excluding connectors at 1550nm and 20°C with an unpolarized

source after thermal equalization unless stated.

1. Measured using a 3 patch-cord method as defined in TIA/EIA-526-14A

2. With APC connectors return loss >70dB without connectors

3. Switch will operate on dark fiber

4. Dynamic range for extended temperature is –20 to +24dBm

5. Calibrated range for optical power monitors; switch operable over 1260-1625nm

Partially populated VOA & OPM options also available. Call for details.
