The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for fast digital signal processor (DSP) optical receiver recovery, namely for optical modems configured on a client side. This approach can be used in optical protection switching (OPS) applications to allow switching between two client links fast, i.e., within 50 ms. A receiver (Rx) digital signal processor (DSP) in an optical receiver includes circuitry configured to detect traffic is interrupted on a current link, enter a holdoff period, and one of i) receive good traffic during the holdoff period and ii) have the holdoff period expire that causes a notification to a host device and retrain to acquire an optical signal.

An electrical layer subnetwork connection protection includes determining, by a network device including a processor, signal status information based on a power of an obtained optical signal. The signal status information is used to indicate a state of a subnetwork connection carrying the optical signal. The method also includes filtering, by the network device, the signal status information based on a preset first threshold. The first threshold indicates a minimum duration in which the optical signal is in a valid state. The method further includes determining, by the network device based on the filtered signal status information, whether to switch a currently used first clock to a second clock different from the clock. The first clock or the second clock is used to initialize connection monitoring information in response to the determination of whether to switch the currently used first clock to the second clock.
