    Abstract: A method for exchanging information with an Optical Network Unit (ONU), the method comprising: receiving, by the ONU, downstream signals that comprise a pilot signal and downstream information signals; wherein the downstream information signals embed first polarization modulated information and second polarization modulated information; wherein the pilot signal is received at a pilot frequency slot and the downstream information signals are received at a downstream information frequency slot that differs from the pilot frequency slot; splitting the downstream signals to first, second, third and fourth sets of signals; wherein the splitting comprises performing a polarization based splitting to provide first and second intermediate sets of signals; wherein the first and second sets of signals originate from the first intermediate set of signals and the third and fourth sets of signals originate from the second intermediate set of signals; generating a fifth set of signals by providing the second and fourth sets of signals to a polarization changing circuit, wherein a polarization direction of the fifth set of signals differs from a polarization direction of the first and second intermediate sets of signals; generating first, second and third sets of detection signals, in response to the first, third and fifth sets of signals; and reconstructing the first polarization modulated information and the second polarization modulated information in response to the first, second and third sets of detection signals.
