OPTICAL MEMS SWITCHES

Sercalo manufactures optical MEMS switches with low insertion loss (IL) and up to 1x64 ports. The optical MEMS switches are proposed in single mode, multimode or PM fiber, at wavelengths from 600 μm up to 1600 μm, as latching or non-latching optical switch. Based on the highly reliable and proven Sercalo optical MEMS design, Sercalo offers fiber optic switch configurations with port counts of up to 16 inputs and 16 outputs.
The extremely high reliability of Sercalo optical MEMS switches meets the requirements of the most demanding applications in Telecom, Datacom, Sensor Networks, Instruments, Test and Measurement.

SERCALO OPTICAL MEMS FOR YOUR SPECIFIC NEEDS

Since 1999 Sercalo Microtechnology Ltd. supplies optical MEMS components to the Fiber Optic Industry. Sercalo Fiber Optic Components are qualified against the Telcordia 1221 standard to withstand extreme environments (mechanical shock, vibration, damp heat, and thermal cycle testing etc.) and are manufactured according to ISO 9001 requirements.
MEMS means the combination of microelectronics and micro-machining technologies. It is 20 years of experience in optical MEMS manufacturing and MEMS foundry technology combined with design expertise in electronics driver designs that makes Sercalo's products stand out in the market. Sercalo's patented optical MEMS technology is based on micro-mirrors fabricated in single crystal silicon.
Sercalo optical MEMS components, including Fiber Optic Switches, Fiber Optic Attenuators and Fiber Optic Tunable Filters, are the solution of choice where high reliability and long-term stability are required. In recent years new designs of Micro-Mirror components for beam steering and scanning were introduced. Such optical MEMS mirrors are used in optical scanning sensors such as Optical Coherence Tomography, scanning LIDARs for autonomous driving and inter-satellite communication to name just a few.
Do you have a special requirement for any of our optical MEMS components? Sercalo offers personalized service for the production of optical MEMS. Please do not hesitate to contact us.
