Abstract

A scheme is described for remote control of the wavelength of a tunable transmitter in a smart small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceiver, a smart SFP plus (SFP+) transceiver, a smart 10 gigabit small form-factor pluggable (XFP) transceiver, a smart duplex transceiver, a smart bidirectional (BiDi) transceiver, or a smart single wavelength single fiber (SWSF) BiDi-transceiver in a communication system using an operating system with Operation, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) and Proprietary Protocol (PP) functions; an OAM, PP & Payload Processor; a transceiver; an optical spectrum analyzer; a bit error rate test (BERT); and an optical link in the field.
