Abstract

See full text

An apparatus and method for providing a differential latency, DL, between an upstream, US, transmission and a downstream, DS, transmission via an optical transmission link (OTL), said apparatus comprising a measurement unit (2) configured to measure the round trip delays, RTD, of at least two measurement signals having different measurement wavelengths; and a processing unit (3) configured to derive an upstream, US, delay of at least one optical signal at an upstream wavelength from the at least two measured round trip delays, RTD, and to derive a downstream, DS, delay of at least one optical signal at a downstream wavelength from the at least two measured round trip delays, RTD, wherein the differential latency, DL, is calculated on the basis of the derived delays, RTD.
