Abstract
Systems and methods for Optical Transport Network (OTN) transmission include an adaptation circuit configured to receive a plurality of signals each from a corresponding optical modem of a plurality of optical modems, wherein each of the plurality of signals was received by the corresponding optical modem, and reassemble the plurality of signals into an Optical Transport Network (OTN) signal.
Claims18
A system comprising:
- an adaptation circuit configured to
- receive a plurality of signals on a line side, wherein each of the plurality of signals is from a corresponding optical modem of a plurality of optical modems connected to the line side, wherein each of the plurality of signals was received by a corresponding optical modem, and
- reassemble the plurality of signals into an Optical Transport Network (OTN) signal for a client side,
- wherein the OTN signal is a single client that is the plurality of optical signals on the line side.
