Abstract

An optical-coax unit (OCU) includes an optical PHY to receive and transmit optical signals and a coax PHY to receive and transmit coax signals. The OCU also includes a media-independent interface to provide a first continuous bitstream from the optical PHY to the coax PHY and a second continuous bitstream from the coax PHY to the optical PHY. The first continuous bitstream corresponds to received optical signals and transmitted coax signals, and the second continuous bitstream corresponds to received coax signals and transmitted optical signals.
