Optical switch, optical fiber arranging member and method of manufacturing the optical fiber arranging member

摘要

The present invention relates to an optical switch comprising a fiber arranging member having a substrate 1 with a plurality of fiber fixing grooves formed in an upper surface thereof, first optical fibers 2 fixed in the fiber fixing grooves, and a convey mechanism 5 for conveying a second optical fiber 6 to be connected to a corresponding first optical fiber 2 to a corresponding fiber fixing groove, wherein fiber introduction grooves 1h for guiding the end portion of the second optical fiber 6 are formed at the end portions of the fiber fixing grooves that fix the end portions of the first optical fibers 2.
