The JDS Uniphase MAP200-MLCS-A2112B-M100-MFA is a 1×12 single-mode fiber optical switch module designed for the MAP-200 modular test and measurement platform. This FC/APC bulkhead-equipped switch operates across the 1270 nm to 1670 nm wavelength range with maximum insertion loss of 1.2 dB and supports both sequential and random switching operations. The module integrates into MAP-200 mainframe chassis—available in three-slot benchtop or eight-slot 19-inch rack configurations (3 RU high)—enabling flexible optical network component and system testing in laboratory and manufacturing environments.
