Zusammenfassung:An optical circuit switch device and method for using the device are provided. The device may include a fiber array including a set of optical fibers configured for transmitting optical signals. The device may include a collimator array coupled to the fiber array configured for aligning the optical signals received from the fiber array. The device may include a first mirror array for receiving the optical signals from the collimator array. The device may include a second mirror array for receiving the optical signals from the first mirror array. The device may include a lens located at the fiber array, the lens having a focal point at the second mirror array.
