Abstract
A switch for coupling and uncoupling a first waveguide from at least a second waveguide characterized by the switch having a member holding the first waveguide in a fixed position in a switch housing and a movable support part for supporting the second waveguide and being movable from a position with the waveguides in a coupling relationship to a position with the waveguides being uncoupled, the support part being connected to the switch housing by at least one flexible web having a bending axis extending parallel to the axis of the second waveguide. Preferably, each of the flexible webs is connected to a second flexible web extending at right angles thereto so that the movable support part can be moved relatiive to the first waveguide in two planes extending at right angles to each other.
