Abstract:
An optical transmitter may include one or more lasers configured to provide a primary optical signal having a primary wavelength and a secondary optical signal having a secondary wavelength to a modulator via corresponding first and second modulator inputs. The modulator may combine the primary and secondary optical signals into a combined optical signal and modulate, with an electrical signal, the combined optical signal to provide a modulated optical signal to an optical filter. The optical filter may be configured to separate, from the modulated optical signal, a modulated primary optical signal having the primary wavelength and a modulated secondary optical signal having the secondary wavelength and provide the modulated primary optical signal to a primary optical link and the modulated secondary optical signal to a secondary optical link.
