Abstract:
The present invention relates to an interface and method for enabling interconnection of a host device and a small-formfactor pluggable module. The interface comprises a host device connector operative to receive a mating small-formfactor pluggable module connector and a switching device connected to the host device connector and operative to selectively switch at least one signal carried over the host device connector between at least two separate signal paths of the host device depending on a selected switching mode of the switching device.
