Abstract
A switch configured to connect a plurality of remote radio units with a plurality of main units in a radio access network. The switch comprises a first stage comprising one or more first units configured to receive a signal originating from a remote radio unit, and configured to output one or more spectral component having a wavelength. The switch further comprises a central stage configured to receive the one or more optical wavelength, and transfer the spectral component to an output port determined by the wavelength. The switch further comprises a second stage comprising one or more second units configured to receive the one or more spectral component from the central stage and output a signal towards a main unit. The first unit is configured to control the wavelength of the output spectral component such that the spectral component is transferred by the central stage to a selected one of said second units.
