  • What is the use of switching wavelengths in an optical power meter

    What is the use of switching wavelengths in an optical power meter

    WSS is an essential component in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical networks, enabling the routing of signals based on wavelength. Wavelength selective switching components are used in WDM optical communications networks to route (switch) signals between optical fibres on a per-wavelength basis. It enables you to dynamically route specific wavelengths across reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexers (ROADMs). This technology allows for high bit rate transmission to be switched between various optical lines.

  • What are the different types of surge protection for primary distribution boxes

    What are the different types of surge protection for primary distribution boxes

    Type 1 units go at the service entrance and stop the biggest surges. Type 2 and Type 3 devices protect at distribution panels and near important equipment. Without proper surge protection, these spikes can severely damage sensitive electronics, appliances, and electrical systems. SPDs offer a critical defense by diverting excess voltage away from protected devices, ensuring their safety and extending their lifespan. This article will explore the. Surge protectors (Surge Protective Devices, SPD) installed in distribution board panels are primarily used to protect electrical equipment from transient voltages (surges or spikes) caused by lightning strikes, power grid fluctuations, or other factors. The. The three main types of SPD are Type 1 SPD, Type 2 SPD, and Type 3 SPD.
