The transceiver comprises a laser, a power splitter, a dual-polarization in-phase and quadrature modulator, DP-IQM, a first circulator (C1, C3), a second circulator (C2, C4), a first optical polarization controller, PC, a second optical polarization controller and a dual-polarization coherent receiver, DP-CRx. There is provided a system comprising a first transceiver and a second transceiver as described previously. The transceiver requires neither high speed DSP nor high resolution data converters to achieve 50 Gbaud DP-16QAM, DP standing for dual polarization and QAM standing for quadrature amplitude modulation, yielding 400 Gb/s over 10 km below the 2.2×10 -4 KP4 forward error correction (FEC) threshold.

Abstract: A small form-factor pluggable (SFP) module and related method are provided to perform additional packet processing in a communication network. The SFP module is generally configured to at least partially process data packets as they transit from a first networking equipment toward a second networking equipment in order to modify or otherwise update header information of the packets as a function of the content of their data payload. Modifying header information of data packets as they transit between interconnected networking equipments allows interconnected networking equipments to perform packet processing on the modified header information.

Abstract: Devices, systems and methods for run-time reassignment of the interconnection between devices pertaining to a Physical (PHY) layer and devices pertaining to a Media Access Control (MAC) layer. The PHY devices are typically located on I/O blades, while MAC devices are typically located on forwarding and control blades. A reconfigurable crossbar device interconnects I/O blades, forwarding blades and control blades. The network of PHY and MAC devices may use a standardized interfacing protocol configured to decouple physically a PHY and a MAC device. Remapping between a PHY and a MAC device is controlled by system management functions. A 'Remote Fault' or a 'Pause' message is used in combination with empty-traffic indicating 'idle patterns' in a system configured to accommodate the remapping of I/O blades to different Application-Specific Standard Product (ASSP) blades so as to avoid or eliminate, respectively, the loss of packets during hardware or software upgrades. During reassignment, traffic is buffered in the MAC device, to which the PHY device is to be switched.

Abstract: Systems and methods according to these exemplary embodiments provide for optical interconnection using optical splitters and interferometer-based optical switching. Optical signals can be routed from an input port to one or more output ports via at least one splitter and at least one interferometer, e.g., a Mach Zehnder interferometer. According to one exemplary embodiment, signal degradation associated with signal splitting is mitigated by using a binary tree of splitters and interferometers between input ports and output ports.
