Abstract:
A communication system includes first and second devices. The first device includes a first transmitter and a first receiver. The first transmitter transmits one data of a first type using one or more first channels over a first communication link to the second device. The first receiver receives one data of a second type, from the second device, using one or more second channels over the first communication link. The second device includes a second transmitter and a second receiver. The second receiver receives said one data of the first type using the one or more first channels over the first communication link, and to generate said one data of the second type based on said one data of the first type. The second transmitter transmits said one data of the second type using one or more second channels over the first communication link to the first device.

Claim (Index 13):
A method of operating a communication system, comprising:\n receiving, at a first data port of an electronic switch, data of a first type transmitted over one or more forward channels of a first communications link; routing, at said electronic switch, said data of a first type to a second data port of said electronic switch; receiving, at a second optical transceiver device, via said second data port of said electronic switch, said data of a first type using one or more first channels; setting, using a hardware processor of said electronic circuit switch, a flag to establish a network path responsive to routing said one data of the first type from the first optical transceiver device over the forward channel of the first communications link to said second data port of said electronic circuit switch; and setting, using the hardware processor of said electronic circuit switch, a switching state of said electronic circuit switch corresponding to said established network path, said switching state configuring said electronic circuit switch to route one data of a second type received at said second data port from said second optical transceiver device for transmission back to a receiving unit of said first optical transceiver device via said network path over a backward channel of said first communications link, said first optical transceiver device receiving said one data of a second type at said first data port of said electronic switch.
