2091466 9205460 PCTABS00011 An optical fiber switch (10) in which the switching force is applied directly to the fiber (12). A biasing force, generated by a bending of the fiber (12), is exerted on the fiber (12) in a direction tending to urge the same toward the bottom (20 B) of a first groove (20). The switching force is applied transversely to the direction of the biasing force, and moves the fiber (12) out of the first groove (20) and into the second, adjacent groove. When in the second groove (22), the biasing force on the fiber urges the same toward the bottom (22 B) of the second groove (22).
