Optical fiber rearrangement method and device |
摘要 |
The present invention provides an optical interconnection device whereby arrays of fibers or waveguides arranged in a given orientation at an input side are rearranged within the device and exit at an output side arranged in a different orientation from the input side. The method of accomplishing the rearrangement is to first arrange a plurality of ribbon fibers each containing a plurality of individual fibers. This arrangement is then fixed or secured at the output side to form a bundle. The output side bundle is then sliced in a different orientation, for example, in a direction orthogonal to each ribbon fiber at the input. As a result of the slicing, distinct arrays are created at the output side. Alternatively, distinct arrays are created at the output side via manual or automated placement based on a roadmap.
