Data center interconnections, which encompass WSCs as well as traditional data centers, have become both a bottleneck and a cost/power issue for cloud computing providers, cloud service providers and the users of the cloud generally. Fiber optic technologies already play critical roles in data center operations and will increasingly in the future. The goal is to move data as fast as possible with the lowest latency with the lowest cost and the smallest space consumption on the server blade and throughout the network. Accordingly, it would be beneficial for new fiber optic interconnection architectures to address the traditional hierarchal time-division multiplexed (TDM) routing and interconnection and provide reduced latency, increased flexibility, lower cost, lower power consumption, and provide interconnections exploiting scalable optical modular optically switched interconnection network as well as temporospatial switching fabrics allowing switching speeds below the slowest switching element within the switching fabric.

A digital mobile fronthaul (MFH) network includes a baseband processing unit (BBU) having a digitization interface configured to digitize, using delta-sigma digitization, at least one wireless service for at least one radio access technology. The network further includes a transport medium in operable communication with the BBU. The transport medium is configured to transmit a delta-sigma digitized wireless service from the BBU. The network further includes a remote radio head (RRH) configured to operably receive the delta-sigma digitized wireless service from the BBU over the transport medium.

The described technology is generally directed towards using a frequency-separated band as a supplementary uplink band for a new radio downlink band that cannot operate as a time division duplex band and otherwise has no paired uplink band. The paired bands are separated in frequency, yet operate in the time division duplex mode. The supplementary uplink for New Radio facilitates coexistence with LTE in the frequency division duplex spectrum.
