A system and method are described for integrating a fiber optic fixed
access network and a fiber optic radio access network. At least one radio
unit transmits and receives communications with at least one mobile unit.
A first multiplexer transmits and receives the communications with the at
least one radio unit and fixed access communications with at least one
fixed access subscriber. The first multiplexer is connected to each of
the at least one radio unit and to each of the at least one fixed access
subscriber using fiber optic connections. Each of the at least one radio
unit transmits and receives the communications with the first multiplexer
using a wavelength that is different for each of the at least one radio
unit and different from that used to transmit and receive the fixed
access communications from the at least one fixed access subscriber. The
communications and the fixed access communications are transmitted and
received together between the first multiplexer and a second multiplexer
through the fiber optic fixed access network using the different
wavelengths.
