DiCon's GP700 General Purpose Fiberoptic Platform offers complete fiber optic switching solutions. The flexible GP700enables the integration of multiple fiber-optic switches,attenuators, couplers, and other components in a user-friendlyprogrammable instrument. The instrument can control up to 301xN switches, tunable filters, or variable attenuators, and up to64 2x2, 1x2, or On-Off switches. Larger configurations can beaccommodated using multiple housings. A wide variety of rack-mountable and benchtop chassis are available. DiCon’sGP700s can be built with Corning SMF-28, Flexcor 1060 orPolarization Maintaining Panda fiber.

Modular GP700

DiCon’s GP700M Modular Mainframe builds on the enormousflexibility of DiCon’s GP700. The GP700M shares the powerfuluser interface with the traditional GP700. At the same time,it offers the convenience of field installation of fiberopticswitches, variable attenuators, and tunable filters. Theinstrument can accommodate up to eight modular Plug-Ins andcan be configured with non-modular internal components byrequest. The GP700M Modular Mainframe is available instandard and extended 4U rackmount chassis.

Features• Easy installation of Plug-In modules • Up to eight Plug-Ins• Manual, IEEE 488.2 (GPIB), and RS-232 interfaces

Applications

The GP700M Modular Platform is used for applications that requireon-site upgradability and configurability and benefit from a robustuser-friendly interface.

Simplex 1xN Switches have one input aligned to one of N outputs.The components switch in one-channel increments. Duplex 1xNswitches have two inputs aligned to two outputs. They switch in two-channel increments.

Blocking 2xN switches have two inputs aligned with only one output.The components switch in half-channel increments. Non-blocking2xN switches have two inputs aligned with two outputs. They switchin one-channel increments.
