Patent

CA 2096181

The present invention provides an optical switch for selectively coupling optical fibers, the optical switch comprising an optical fiber-arranging member, including: a stationary fiber-fixing portion for receiving and arranging a plurality of first optical fibers, each first optical fiber having an end portion; a stationary fiber- introduction portion having fiber-introduction grooves therein for receiving at least one second optical fiber, the second optical fiber having a distal end portion; and means for inserting longitudinally the second optical fiber into any selected fiber-introduction groove and for conveying longitudinally the second optical fiber distal end along the fiber-introduction groove to a selected first optical fiber to optically couple the second optical fiber with the selected first optical fiber. Also provided are methods of manufacturing an optical switch.
