Abstract
An optical switching assembly selectively connects an optical source and a detector to at least one fiber optic device. The assembly includes first and second groups of optical paths, and first and second optical switches. The first optical switch selectively connects the optical source to one end of the first group of optical paths, and the second optical switch selectively connects the detector to the one end of the second group of optical paths. The assembly laos includes a plurality of junctions, each having a lead associated therewith, and one or more of the leads are connected to the fiber optic device. The junctions connect the other end of the first group of optical paths and the other end of the second group of optical paths to the lead to facilitate the testing of the fiber optic device.
