Delmarva Engineering is pleased to announce its appointment by Polatis Inc. as sales representative to military, government and civil customers and their prime contractors in Maryland, Virginia, Washington DC, and North Carolina. The Polatis line of high performance fiber optic switches expands Delmarva’s capabilities for coaxial and fiber optic transmission systems.
Polatis offers non-blocking switch configurations up to 32 X 32 with optional variable optical attenuation and power monitoring. Form factors include OEM type modules, cPCI cards, and low profile rack mount units. The Polatis DirectLight Beam Steering technology offers unparalleled performance, immunity to shock and vibration, and reliability.
Some of the many advantages of the Polatis switch line are:
- Unparalleled performance: the lowest insertion loss and minimal overall signal impairment of any non-blocking matrix switch in its class.
- Network grade reliability: Best in class reliability for critical applications
- Compact footprint: small system and module footprint for physically constrained applications
- Low power consumption
- Maximum flexibility: the widest number of configurations and features of any switching platform, including single mode, multimode, user-selectable port asymmetry, integrated power meter and VOA functions, and more
- Ultra-stable signal: near zero modulation on signal pass-through, unlike other switches that use optical feedback
Totally secure: zero optical tap means no opportunity for signal intrusion, unlike other switches that must tap optical power for switching control
- Extended operating range and hermetically sealed optics for demanding applications
Hundreds of Polatis switching systems are currently in use in the most critical applications. These include:
- RF Fiber Switching: flexible routing of RF signals from multiple remote antennas, preserving high signal to noise ratios
- Secure Networks: provide controlled access to optical-layer switching at remote nodes through switches with secured access
- Shipboard communications: fiber optic communication links, with redundant path failover
- Real time video signal routing: routing of high bandwidth secure video links
- Intrusion Detection & Monitoring: access device for switching in optical and packet monitoring equipment, and locating fault/intrusion points
