6 Overview

Depending on the type of the fiber, the switches are suitable for the spectral range of
180...2600 nm. A complete switch consists of casing, fibers and fiber connectors. The fibers
are moved utilizing piezo-bending actuators.
piezosystem jena is able to deliver switches equipped with the following standard fiber types:

50/125 µm

62,5/125 µm

100/110 µm

100/140 µm

200/220 µm

400/440 µm

600/720 µm
Typical switching time is 2...6 ms. Depending on the fiber type, insertion losses are in the
range of 0.6...1.8 dB. The control voltage must be in the range as determined in the technical
data. Any other values will cause the switch to work improperly.
