Patent abstract
An optical network may be configured dynamically so that a given channel wavelength can operate in either direction over a fiber in a network. Thus, network providers can provision bandwidth according to the traffic characteristics of the network link in question. A plurality of transceiver modules on either side of a fiber may be switched from a transmit mode to a receive mode depending on the desired direction of the channel.
