Optical switches are a key component for a variety of optical networking applications such as configurable add/drop multiplexers for dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) systems, optical cross-connects, and protection switching. The Akzo Nobel Photonics product line includes 1x2, 2x2, 1x4 and 1x8 optical switches, as well as array configurations of 1x2 and 2x2 switches.

Is this the switch that keeps everything at the optical layer without having to switch to electrical layer? If so, I'm guessing this is an extremely strategic purchase.

Thanks for posting.

Also, was the AlliedSignal alliance announced earlier?
