Key features
Description
MEMS-based design
With its MEMS-based design, EXFO’s FTBx-9160 delivers durable performance in a compact package. Fast switching time and a 1-billion-cycle lifetime expectancy make it the perfect optical switch for demanding manufacturing applications. The FTBx-9160 MEMS Optical Switch is available for singlemode fibers with a choice of 1x2, 1x4,1x8, 1x12, 1x16, 1x24 and 1x32 modules.
Supporting various applications
Optical switches are basic components integrated in almost every test station. The FTBX-9160 offers the specifications and features to support a wide variety of applications. Choose it to:
- Analyze transmitted signals using several types of test instruments, such as an optical spectrum analyzer and a bit-error-rate tester
- Reconfigure an R&D or manufacturing test station to allow testing of several types of devices
- Test multiple devices under test (DUTs) in parallel
LTB-8 Rackmount Platform
The LTB-8 is a highly scalable and compact platform featuring the industry’s best 100G port density and hot-swap capabilities for no downtime or interruption in tests, and greatly improved efficiency. The FTBx-9160 can be easily remote-controlled by means of the standard LAN or optimal GPIB interface using SPCI commands, IVI drivers or any other automation software.
