The JDS Uniphase MAP200-MLCS-A1204B-M100-MFP is a Multi-Layer Control Switch module engineered for the MAP-200 modular test platform. This dual independent 1×4 fiber switch delivers precision optical routing with 9/125 fiber connectivity and FC/PC connectors, enabling fast, repeatable channel selection across demanding optical test and measurement workflows. The module switches to the first channel in 25 ms, with each additional channel requiring just 15 ms. Insertion loss stability reaches ±0.02 dB for up to 25 cycles, tightening to ±0.005 dB repeatability in sequential switching modes. Crosstalk isolation of -80 dB ensures clean signal paths, while the 300 mW maximum optical input power rating accommodates high-power test scenarios. Rated for over 100 million switching cycles, this module provides long-term reliability in production test, R&D, and field service environments.
