This paper demonstrated the high capacity performance signature of micro optical mechanical system switches based fiber Bragg grating scheme in optical wavelength division multiplexing data routed center networks. The FBG reflectivity is simulated versus near infrared operating wavelength region with relative refractive index difference of Δn = 0.1 %. Required optical pump power, temperature increment and FBG power dissipation or consumption are demonstrated versus FBG wavelength spacing at pumping wavelength of 1,480 nm for doped/undoped fiber. Required FBG mechanical switching voltage, and required FBG mechanical/thermal switching time are clarified at pumping wavelength of 1,480 nm for doped/undoped fiber. Grating period and Bragg wavelength is studied against effective refractive silica/polymer FBG index.
