Abstract: An optical transmission bypass device attaching a network device to a fiber optic network allows fiber optic transmissions to bypass the network device when not powered, thereby maintaining continuity of the fiber network. A first and second actuating optical reflector has a reflective face that, in an un-powered state, is disposed to place the reflective face of the actuating optical reflector in a first position with respect to an optical path of an optical port, and, in a powered state, is disposed to place the reflective face of the actuating optical reflector in a second position with respect to the optical path of the optical port.
