ABSTRACT:
A method for aligning a substantially co-linear array of lasers with a substantially co-linear array of optical fibers, comprising the steps of activating a laser in proximity to a first end of said laser array, positioning the laser array with respect to the fiber array to maximize energy coupled from the activated laser to its corresponding fiber, activating a laser in proximity to a second end of said laser array; and positioning the laser array with respect to the fiber array to maximize energy coupled from the activated laser to its corresponding fiber.
