Overview

The MOSX-C1116XCCB0-M100-MFP is the 16-port, FC/PC-bulkhead variant of the VIAVI MAP Series mOSX-C1 cross connect optical switch. It is a dual-slot module that installs in MAP-300 and MAP-200 chassis and acts as a test path manager, connecting multiple test paths across the switch fabric to enable parallel test processes.

The mOSX is a low insertion loss, non-blocking, bidirectional matrix switch. Its any-port to any-port connection fabric supports both symmetric topologies (for example 8x8) and asymmetric topologies (for example 4x12), so the same hardware can be reconfigured on demand. A 16-port switch can be configured as a dual 4x4, 8x8, 7x9, 6x10 or 1x15. Connections may be pre-configured without light present, are held in a blocking state until activated, and can be made and broken without affecting other connections.

Measurement principle

The switching engine uses compact piezoelectric actuators to align the signal path with expanded beam optics. A capacitive sensor matrix measures the position of the collimating lens to provide long-term stability and repeatability, and connections are maintained even when no light is present. Reflective optics fold the switch engine so that each fiber can connect to all other fibers.

Software and control

The module is controlled through the MAP Series graphical user interface or a SCPI remote interface. Ports can be given logical names, and an optional MxN topology can be assigned in software so that only connections following the programmed structure are allowed. In full any-to-any mode all connections are possible. The mOSX can be paired with MAP-Series mOSW modules to build larger switching systems.
