Abstract
An optical communication technique transmits an optical signal at a higher bit rate using an optical transceiver interface couplable to a set of optical transmitters, each operating at a lower bit rate over a plurality of channels, by demultiplexing the optical signals from the transmitters such that some of the resulting optical signals have wavelengths that are specified as center wavelengths by an optical communication standard for the lower bit rate optical transmission and the rest of the resulting optical signals have wavelengths offset from the specified center wavelengths, then multiplexing the resulting optical signals into the higher bit rate optical signal. Related optical communication techniques involve using the reciprocal method to receive the higher bit rate optical signal and to produce multiplexed optical signals at the lower bit rate.
