Abstract:
A network architecture for an optical communication network, an optical communication network configured according to the network architecture and a method for interconnecting via a MD-WSS are provided. The network comprises at least a first ODN, an MD-WSS having a plurality of ports, and at least a first node. The first ODN is connected to one of the ports of the MD-WSS and the first node is connected to another one of the ports of the MD-WSS, wherein the ports of the MD-WSS  100  are paired such that the port connected to the first ODN is paired with the port connected to the first node such that signals originating from the first ODN are in a default case routed to the first node, and signals originating from the first node are in the default case routed to the first ODN.

Claim (Index 4):
A network architecture according to  claim 3 , wherein the part of the optical network comprised in the ring comprises at least one of another MD-WSS, a Base Band Unit (BBU), a Remote Radio Head (RRH), a WSS, an optical gateway, a Reconfigurable Optical Add Drop Multiplexer, (ROADM), an Optical Cross Connector (OXC), and an optical to electrical converter.
