Advanced Communications
The rapid growth in
communications during the
last century and more
recently the Internet’s
relentless need for more
communication capacity
have given rise to the
dramatic evolution in
Optical Networking. Since
its humble beginnings in the
1960s, and following the
wide-spread adoption of
Wave Division Multiplexing
(WDM) technology in the
mid 80s, fibre optic
networks have evolved in to
a dependable infrastructure
that we take for granted
everyday.
Yet much of the power of the fibre optic network still lies close to its
core. Industry studies and anecdotal evidence tells us that a high
percentage of our everyday communication needs is increasing likely to
be satisfied by local content stored in wide area, metro and local access
and distribution networks. So, the challenge then, is to bring affordable
and dependable high bandwidth services to Smart Office workers and
Home market users
Omron’s vision is that optical communications should enrich the way
people live their lives in the twenty-first century. With increased
bandwidths in access and distributions networks, everyone can enjoy an
improved experience in computing, learning, business, security, leisure
and entertainment
We’re driven to seek innovative new optical component solutions that
are both capable of meeting today’s challenging system requirements
and yet be efficiently manufactured in the large volumes necessary for
mass market adoption. Our ground-breaking component designs are the
result of our many years experience at the forefront or precision
replication technology
The developing markets of intra-city metro and access, and now fibreto-the-node,
to the premises and ultimately to the home (FttH) are
happening now! Omron with its core competencies and break through
technologies is uniquely placed ready to meet the challenges that lie
ahead.

Welcome to a world of new possibilities.
We’ve developed an innovative range of
ultra small form factor packages that
enable you to achieve new space saving
solutions that up until now you never
thought were possible.
Design with more freedom and make
better use of limited design space with
Omron’s space-saving Mux, TOSA/

Innovation in Size and Structure
Filter or Mirror
with Actuator
Lens Array
Fibre Array
• Our optical subassembly (OSA) products with
‘Afterburner TM ’ technology combine patented
CWDM designs (inc. Zigzag concept) and
integrate small optical elements to deliver ultra
small form factor packages
• Afterburner is versatile enough to work in many
industry standard and custom configurations
Reflector Filter Block
PACS Structure
The Structure
At the heart of each Optical Mux and Switch device
is the Precisely Arrayed and Combined Solutions
(PACS) structure. This enables replicable and
scalable micro-optic designs to be mass produced
cost effectively.
Laser / Detector
Fibre Optic Connector
The PACS structure consists of three main
elements
• Fibre array for mechanical coupling
• Omron’s proprietary micro lens array for efficient
light coupling
• Filter and mirror or prism combined with an
actuator to control light signal path function
e
The Advantage
• Advanced structure achieves ultra small size
packages
• Versatile angle path and free shape micro optics
• Proven mechanical relay & linear actuator
reliability
• User friendly ‘Plug n play’ off the shelf solutions
• High reliability - reduced number of parts and
replicable designs using common platform
