我们推出了一种基于微机电系统的波束控制光交叉连接交换核心，端口数超过 1100 个，在所有可能的连接中平均光纤到光纤插入损耗为 2.1 dB，最大插入损耗为 4.0 dB。自动化测试设施应对了有效测量和优化所有可能连接的挑战。由此产生的连接在正常实验室条件下无需任何反馈控制，几天内的光损耗稳定性优于 0.2 dB。
We present a microelectromechanical systems-based beam steering optical crossconnect switch core with port count exceeding 1100, featuring mean fiber-to-fiber insertion loss of 2.1 dB and maximum insertion loss of 4.0 dB across all possible connections. The challenge of efficient measurement and optimization of all possible connections was met by an automated testing facility. The resulting connections feature optical loss stability of better than 0.2 dB over days, without any feedback control under normal laboratory conditions.
