Claim 11:
12. The method of claim 11, further comprising:
receiving, a legacy downlink time-domain signal associated with a legacy logical channel from a legacy signal source;
converting the legacy downlink time-domain signal into an open radio access network (O-RAN) compatible downlink time-domain signal comprising one of an Ethernet-compatible downlink time-domain signal and a time-division multiplexing (TDM) compatible downlink time-domain signal;
providing the O-RAN compatible downlink time-domain signal to the routing circuit;
converting an O-RAN compatible uplink time-domain signal associated with the legacy logical channel into a legacy uplink time-domain signal;
providing the legacy uplink time-domain signal to the legacy signal source;
receiving one or more O-RAN compatible uplink time-domain signals each associated with the legacy logical channel from the routing circuit; and
combining the one or more O-RAN compatible uplink time-domain signals into the Ethernet-compatible uplink time-domain signal.
