Optical communications system and method of protecting an optical route |
摘要 |
<p>A section of tapered optical fibre is provided to protect optical component (12) from catastrophic damage that may propagate within an optical route. The tapered section (23) functions as a fuse to arrest the propagation of optical power induced damage by leaking optical power from a waveguiding region to below a threshold, below which further propagation of damage is not supported.</p> |
