Abstract: A transceiver module for providing operational resilience is presented. The transceiver module is configured to receive first data via a first optical module in a first configuration of operation and detect, using an adapter that is operationally connected to the first optical module, an operational failure of the first optical module. In response to detecting the operational failure, the transceiver module is configured to switch, via the adapter, from the first configuration of operation to a second configuration of operation by: automatically engaging a second optical module; triggering the first data that was initially directed into a first input port of the first optical module to be directed into a second input port of the second optical module; and receiving the first data from a second output port of the second optical module.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and associated methods of manufacturing are described that provide a dynamic data interconnect and networking cable configuration. The dynamic data interconnect includes a substrate, transmitters supported on the substrate configured to generate signals, and receivers supported on the substrate configured to receive signals. The dynamic data interconnect further includes a number of connection pads that receive data cables attached thereto and a number of transmission lanes that operably couple the transmitters and receivers to the connection pads. The dynamic data interconnect further includes transmission circuitry in communication with each of the transmitters and receivers such that, in an operational configuration, the transmission circuitry determines a transmission state of the dynamic data interconnect and selectively disables operation of at least a portion of the transmitters or at least a portion of the receivers.

Abstract: A datacenter environment having a plurality of servers, leaf switches, and spine switches is presented. A transceiver module facilitates reliable data transmission across network layers. The transceiver module includes a first optical module to facilitate data transmission between a server and a leaf switch, and a second optical module to facilitate data transmission between the leaf switch and a spine switch. An adapter operatively coupled to both optical modules manages data flow under different configurations. In a first configuration, the adapter receives first data from the server via the first optical module and second data from the leaf switch via the second optical module. Upon detecting an operational failure in the first optical module, the adapter terminates reception of second data from the leaf switch and switches to a second configuration, in which it redirects the first data from the server through the second optical module.
