Fiber optic switch can optically connect, or align, any one of a first group of optical fibers with any one of a second group of optical fibers, or vice versa, enable an optical signal to propagate through the optical interface junction from one fiber to the other. It may be characterized by switching speed, coupling loss, and connectivity. Additionally, cost, reliability, and durability over switching lifetime are also important design considerations for this switch. Fiber optic switch is specially designed for wet locations, such as shower and pool areas, where traditional electrical switches would be dangerous to operate. It can be used in areas subject to salt spray and other aggressive conditions where conventional switches would corrode and fail. Moreover, fiber-optic switch allows a homeowner or contractor to install a switching device for an electrical appliance regardless of the electrical wiring layout. Besides, the distance between switch and electrical device is limited by the ability for the plastic fiber-optic cable to conduct light effectively. Fiber-optic cable is available in runs of up to 100 feet.
