Abstract:
In some embodiments, an apparatus includes an optical transceiver that includes a first set of electrical transmitters operatively coupled to a switch. Each electrical transmitter from the first set of electrical transmitters is configured to transmit an electrical signal from a set of electrical signals. In such embodiments, the switch is configured to switch an electrical signal from the set of electrical signals such that the set of electrical signals are transmitted via a second set of electrical transmitters. Each electrical transmitter from the second set of electrical transmitters is operatively coupled to an optical transmitter from a set of optical transmitters. The set of optical transmitters is operatively coupled to an optical multiplexer. In such embodiments, at least one electrical transmitter from the second set of electrical transmitters is associated with a failure within the optical transceiver.

Claim (Index 9):
The method of  claim 7 , wherein the first optical transceiver includes an optical tap, an optical detector operatively coupled to the optical tap, the controller operatively coupled to the optical detector, the method further comprising:\n receiving, at the optical tap, a portion of an optical signal received from the second optical transceiver; detecting, at the optical detector, the optical signal to produce a detected signal; and decoding, at the controller, the detected signal to extract an encoded signal from the electrical signal and associated with the failure.
