Abstract: A self-centering structure (300) for aligning optical fibers (308) desired to be optically coupled together is disclosed. The self-centering structure (300) including a body (310) having a first end (312) and a second end (314). The first end (312) defines a first opening (303) and the second end (314) defines a second opening (304). The self-centering structure (300) includes a plurality of groove structures (306) integrally formed in the body (310) of the self-centering structure for receiving the optical fibers (308) and a fiber alignment region (305) positioned at an intermediate location between the first and second ends (312, 314) to facilitate centering and alignment of the optical fibers (308). The plurality of cantilever members (322) is flexible and configured for urging the optical fibers (308) into their respective groove structures (306).

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an optical splice package for splicing together first and second optical fibers or first and second sets of optical fibers. The optical fibers have elastic bending characteristics. The splice package includes a splice housing including a mechanical alignment feature for co-axially aligning ends of the first and second optical fibers or sets of optical fibers within the splice housing. The splice housing contains adhesive for securing the ends of the first and second optical fibers or sets of optical fibers within the splice housing. The optical package has a weight less than a spring force corresponding to the elastic bending characteristics of the first and second optical fibers or sets of optical fibers.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a system and method for troubleshooting in an optical data network that has a laser transmitter/receiver unit that outputs a data signal and an OTDR unit that produces an OTDR probe signal. The data and OTDR probe signals, typically at different wavelengths, are coupled into one end of a trunk fiber which is coupled at its far end to an optical circuit that includes a number of wavelength-selective optical switches and has multiple outputs that are directed to different end users. The optical switches are configurable so as to provide the OTDR probe signal to only one of the optical circuit's outputs while maintaining the data signal at the same output, while also maintaining the data signal, without the OTDR probe signal, at other outputs.
