SM OXC
OXC is Matrix Optical Switch that allows the simultaneous connection of multiple input to output fibers in a fully non-blocking, all-optical, cross-connect configuration. Amazelink’s MEMS OXC is based on industry proven, long-life, reliable MEMS 1xN optical switch components. An MxN OXC is built by cascading M 1xN switches and N 1xM switches. Every input has a 1xN switch, while every output has a Mx1 switch. The output fibers of each 1xN are spliced to the M side of each Mx1 to allow any input to connect to any output.
