Abstract:
1. A system for telecommunications comprising: first circuitry operable to receive time division multiplexed data traffic, perform Virtual Tributary encapsulation on the time division multiplexed data traffic, and perform Ethernet encapsulation on the Virtual Tributary encapsulated time division multiplexed data traffic; a first Ethernet switch to receive the Ethernet encapsulated Virtual Tributary encapsulated time division multiplexed data traffic from the first circuitry and transmit the Ethernet encapsulated Virtual Tributary encapsulated time division multiplexed data traffic to a first Passive Optical Network Media Access Control block; the first Passive Optical Network Media Access Control block to receive the Ethernet encapsulated Virtual Tributary encapsulated time division multiplexed data traffic from the first Ethernet switch and transmit the Ethernet encapsulated Virtual Tributary encapsulated time division multiplexed data traffic over a Passive Optical Network; the Passive Optical Network to transmit the Ethernet encapsulated Virtual Tributary encapsulated time division multiplexed data traffic; a second Passive Optical Network Media Access Control block to receive the Ethernet encapsulated Virtual Tributary encapsulated time division multiplexed data traffic from the Passive Optical Network and transmit the Ethernet encapsulated Virtual Tributary encapsulated time division multiplexed data traffic to a second Ethernet switch; the second Ethernet switch to receive the Ethernet encapsulated Virtual Tributary encapsulated time division multiplexed data traffic from the second Passive Optical Network Media Access Control block and transmit the Ethernet encapsulated Virtual Tributary encapsulated time division multiplexed data traffic to second circuitry; the second circuitry operable to receive the Ethernet encapsulated Virtual Tributary encapsulated time division multiplexed data traffic, and extract the time division multiplexed data traffic from the Ethernet encapsulated Virtual Tributary encapsulated time division multiplexed data traffic.
