The JDS Uniphase MAPS+1K70204N1FA is a hot-swappable optical switch cassette module for the JDS Uniphase Multiple Application Platform (MAP) System. This dual 1×4 switch redirects input light to a selected output channel using optical prism or mirror technology. The module operates bidirectionally and is transparent to signal format, available in single-mode (SM) and multimode (MM) fiber configurations. It integrates into either the MAP+2M00 Master (19-inch, 8-slot) or MAP+2B00 Benchtop (9.5-inch, 3-slot) mainframe via a common hot-swappable backplane. Automatic firmware identification and remote control via RS-232 or GPIB enable rapid deployment in optical test and measurement systems.
