Patent attributes
A technique for asymmetric transport is disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the technique may be realized by/as a method for asymmetric transport. The method may comprise transmitting, from a network element, at least one first signal through at least one first transport interface at a first rate, where the at least one first transport interface accommodates the transmission of the at least one first signal through an optical medium. The method may also comprise receiving, at the network element, at least one second signal through at least one second transport interface at a second rate different from the first rate, where the at least one second transport interface accommodates the reception of the at least one second signal through the optical medium. At least one of the at least one first transport interface and the at least one second transport interface may be integrated with the network element.
