Claims15
A network comprising at least one host device having an interface card connected to a backplane of said host device,
- wherein said interface card comprises at least one cage for receiving a pluggable module wherein the pluggable module comprises Time Division Multiplexing TDM between an optical network interface and an electrical host interface.
A pluggable module for bidirectional transport of data via at least one optical fibre between host devices,
- wherein said pluggable module comprises Time Division Multiplexing TDM between an optical network interface and an electrical host interface.
A data transport system for transporting bidirectional optical data via at least one optical fibre, wherein at both ends of said optical fibre a pluggable module is attached wherein the pluggable module comprises Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) between an optical network interface and an electrical host interface.
A method for bidirectional transport of data between host devices of a network via at least one optical fibre,
- wherein a pluggable module attached to said optical fibre is connected to a corresponding cage of one of said host devices and the pluggable module performs Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) between an optical network interface and an electrical host interface.
