Abstract

An RF-photonics integrated communications module (100) including: a plurality of RF input channels (111,121,131 and 141); a plurality of modulators (110,120,130 and 140) each being responsive to one of the RF input channels; and, a plurality of photonic output channels (114, 124, 134 and 144) coupled to the modulators via a switching network. The switching network includes a plurality of resonating elements coupled between the modulators and the output channels to selectively apply outputs of the modulators to the output channels.
