“DEVICE FOR THE SWITCHING OF REMOTE OPTICAL SWITCH PER IP ADDRESS” 12, conceived to extend the supervision distance range of centralized optical supervision systems, containing one centralized optical supervision system (COS) 5b, comprising one microcomputer that manages, through a data copper network 6b, several remote points of supervision RPS 7c, each of them formed by one OTDR, one microcomputer 3d and one optical switch 4c; and commanding, through the data copper network 6b, a plurality of remote optical switches 12, individually identified by one fixed IP address, being these remote optical switches 12 displayed in the optical fibers that are connected to the output channels of the optical switch 4c, known as optical fibers, which receive at least one remote optical switch device 12, encompassing one ETHERNET INTERFACE that receives Ethernet standard packages and performs the treatment of the TCP/IP protocol, extracting data contained in it; a microcontroller that receives and decodes data coming from the ETHERNET INTERFACE, obtaining the indication of the channel as well as the switching commands; and an optical switch 4d that, commanded by the microcontroller, switches to the channel that is indicated by the RPS 7c, so that the route that this point of supervision intends to supervise is established.
1- “DEVICE FOR THE SWITCHING OF REMOTE OPTICAL SWITCH PER IP ADDRESS” (12), conceived to extend the supervision distance range of centralized optical supervision systems, containing one centralized optical supervision system (COS) (5b), comprising one microcomputer that manages, through a data copper network (6b), several remote points of supervision RPS (7c), each of them formed by one OTDR, one microcomputer (3d) and one optical switch (4c);
2- “DEVICE FOR THE SWITCHING OF REMOTE OPTICAL SWITCH” (12) according to claims 1, characterized by the fact that the TCP/IP command signaling destined to it comprises its IP address, the identification of the channel to which the optical switch (4d) is supposed to switch.
3- “DEVICE FOR THE SWITCHING OF THE REMOTE OPTICAL SWITCH”, according to claim 1, characterized by the fact that, after switching, the optical switch (4d) informs the microcontroller whether the switching was accomplished or not.
4- “DEVICE FOR THE SWITCHING OF THE REMOTE OPTICAL SWITCH”, according to claims 1 and 3, characterized by the fact that, after being informed whether the optical switch (4d) switched or not, the microcontroller transmits the information to the RPS (7c), which checks whether the switching occurred.
