An optical switch includes an input port into which a multiplexed optical
signal is input; a dispersing unit that, according to wavelength,
disperses the multiplexed optical signal into a plurality of optical
signals that are each dispersed in a unique direction; a converging unit
that converges the dispersed optical signals; plural mirrors that are
arrayed forming a single row in a plane and reflecting the converged
optical signals, respectively; and plural output ports through which the
reflected optical signals are output. Each of the mirrors has a concave
reflective surface that is in the plane and of a predetermined curvature
about an axis parallel to the plane.
