The Ando AQ2200-411-04-SA-FCC is an Optical Switch (OSW) module for the Yokogawa AQ2200 Multi Application Test System, delivering efficient optical signal routing across diverse test configurations. This two-slot module enables flexible switching between multiple optical paths, supporting both single-mode and multi-mode fiber architectures. Engineers integrate it with complementary AQ2200 instruments—light sources, optical sensors, attenuators, and transceiver interfaces—to build tailored measurement solutions for optical communication systems and component characterization.
