Various methods, systems, and apparatuses are described in which a wavelength-division-multiplexing passive-optical-network includes a wavelength-locked light source and a wavelength-specific light source. The wavelength-locked light source may be used for communications in a first direction in the wavelength division multiplexed passive optical network to supply data signals at a first data rate. The wavelength-specific light source may be used for communications in a second direction in the wavelength division multiplexed passive optical network to supply data at a second data rate.read more
