LightBridge™ is redefining optical fiber connections with contactless solutions for challenging environments and edge computing. We make connectivity simple, powerful and ready for the future.
Contactless Connectivity. Unlimited Scalability
LightBridge™ introduces an innovative approach to optical fiber connectivity. Leveraging cutting-edge Expanded Beam (EB) contactless technology, our patent pending technology offers unparalleled scalability, reliability and cost-effectiveness.
First samples release towards Q2 2026
Our technology strengthens your network
LightBridge™ patent pending technology is based on integrated, wafer-level photonics with minimal human operations. This results in contactless connectivity with unmatched precision and scalability. LightBridge™ design eliminates the temperature and wavelength dependence of the optics for consistent performance.
A comparative study of physical contact (PC) and expanded beam (EB) connectors performed a few years ago showed that EB connectors suffer from many defaults (circled in red). The LightBridge technology has been especially developed in order to solve these problems and provide outstanding performance without increasing the price of the connectors.

Our technology strengthens your network
We are currently introducing the Harsh series designed for multimode fibers and 850nm to 1550nm wavelength. They are available as chips that can be mounted on MPO/MT ferrules, or already mounted on an MPO/MT ferrule.
The following options are currently available:
1 to 4 rows of 12 fibers (250 microns pitch)
1 and 2 rows of 16 fibers (165 microns pitch)
