Patent abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide an optical port that can be configured to support either high speed or low speed optical signals. In particular, these embodiments comprise a switch that defines a data-rate dependent path between the front-end optics of a network node and internal processing electronic modules. As a result, either high speed or low speed pluggable adapters may be inserted within a port and supported by the processing electronic modules.
