The JDS Uniphase MAPS+2W73141FP is a 1×4 optical switch module engineered for single-mode fiber routing within the Multiple Application Platform (MAP) ecosystem. This hot-swappable cassette directs optical signals from a single input port to any of four output ports, enabling dynamic signal path management in optical test systems. The module integrates directly into MAP Master or Benchtop chassis, where it is dynamically identified by firmware and controlled through RS-232 or GPIB remote interfaces.
## Technical Specifications
• **Product Type:** Optical Switch Module
• **Series:** MAP (Multiple Application Platform)
• **Switch Configuration:** 1×4 (1 input, 4 outputs)
• **Fiber Type:** Single-Mode (SM)
• **Form Factor:** Hot-swappable cassette module
• **System Interface:** Internal backplane connection to MAP chassis
• **Remote Control:** RS-232 and GPIB via MAP chassis controller
## Key Features
• Routes optical signals between one input and four selectable output ports
• Hot-swappable installation—no chassis power-down required
• Automatically detected and managed by MAP firmware
• Integrates with standard optical connectors (connector type determined by chassis configuration)
• Operates as part of a modular test platform supporting lasers, attenuators, amplifiers, and filters
## Typical Applications
• Optical component and system characterization
• Fiber optic network signal routing for diagnostics and monitoring
• Automated test setups and production measurement environments
• Flexible optical experiment configurations for R&D
## Compatibility & Integration
Compatible with JDS Uniphase MAP+2M00 Master and MAP+2B00 Benchtop chassis. Functions as a plug-in element within larger optical test systems, allowing straightforward reconfiguration across multiple measurement scenarios without external switching hardware.
