Why OC GuideLink™ versus silica glass waveguides?
• With the drive toward data-centric networks, the demand for high volume, high performance, and low cost will rule the day. Optical CrossLinks’ OC GuideLink solutions are ideally positioned to win in this game because they offer all these features and others such as ability to accommodate both single mode and multimode fibers, route short or long wavelength signals, integrate active and passive devices, create switches or filters, and more. OC GuideLink films are inherently physically compliant so they can be bent and twisted key advantages over other silica and most other polymers (usually polyimides) that are extremely hard when cured.
