Abstract
A transceiver module for providing operational resilience is presented. The transceiver module is configured to receive first data via a first optical module in a first configuration of operation and detect, using an adapter that is operationally connected to the first optical module, an operational failure of the first optical module. In response to detecting the operational failure, the transceiver module is configured to switch, via the adapter, from the first configuration of operation to a second configuration of operation by: automatically engaging a second optical module; triggering the first data that was initially directed into a first input port of the first optical module to be directed into a second input port of the second optical module; and receiving the first data from a second output port of the second optical module.
