Hi Arnold, I have recently been talking to these guys ( https://www.metamako.com/use-cases/ ) about intelligent cross connect management within our data centers. Maybe this would work for you, and probably less complicated than a robot. Cheers Pete On 11/12/2014 09:21, joel jaeggli

Those photonic switches are getting cheaper because a ton of people make them now and the components aren't really very expensive. Of course the cost is relative, and I don't know what an electromechanical switch might cost. Glimmerglass, Calient, Polatis were some of the early ones but I've
