The invention discloses a system and method for improving the output efficiency of the boards of communication equipment and belongs to the communication equipment and board hardware and software design field. The system includes a chassis and boards to be upgraded installed in the chassis; the boards to be upgraded comprise at least one main control board and at least one business board; the system further comprises at least one mother board; the mother board is connected with the boards to be upgraded; board type signals are designed on the boards to be upgraded; the chassis is provided with a chassis address signal for identifying the number of the chassis; different slot number signals are inputted into different slots in the chassis; a hub is arranged in the main control board; and the chassis address and the slot numbers are used for calculating a GID (global identification). The method includes the following steps that: the boards to be upgraded are electrified and started; the GID is calculated; the boards to be upgraded apply to the mother board for a board software package; and the mother board pushes the board software package to the boards. With the system and method of the invention adopted, the problem of low efficiency of the update of special programs for boards can be solved, and the production capacity of the communication equipment can be improved.
