Abstract:
Multiplexing-technology based large-capacity transmission requires the installation of many types of interface card. In addition, supporting a redundant configuration for preventing data communication from being interrupted requires the devices and cards more than double those required for the production system. An optical communication card includes multiple optical signal transmission/reception units, main signal processing units corresponding to the optical signal transmission/reception units and required for a multiplexed system, and a connection selection unit that can switch among multiple optical transmission lines, and each of the main signal processing units includes multiple function units and a function selection unit.
Abstract:
An optical transmission apparatus comprising a first detector for detecting the power of the supervisory signal light separated from received wavelength-division multiplexed signal lights; a second detector for detecting the power of the wavelength-division multiplexed signal lights after the separation of the supervisory signal light; a gain-controlled type optical amplifier for amplifying the wavelength-division multiplexed signal lights; an optical attenuator coupled to the amplifier; and a control unit for controlling the optical amplifier and the optical attenuator so as to keep the output level of the wavelength-division multiplexed signal lights to a predetermined target value, wherein the control unit restrains automatic output level control by the optical attenuator when the supervisory signal light power fluctuates within its permissible range and fluctuations in the signal light power have deviated from its permissible range.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an optical transmission device with a simple configuration that can attenuate an input optical power only when it is necessary so that it falls within a predetermined range, and can suppress insertion loss when it is unnecessary. A variable optical attenuator is configured pluggable. A pluggable variable optical attenuator is equipped with an optical connector that is an interface of an optical signal and an electrical signal connector for receiving an electrical signal that specifies the amount of control used for feedback-controlling the attenuation, and controls the attenuation depending on the input optical power of the optical transmission board. Moreover, an optical through that has the same shape as the variable optical attenuator being configured pluggable and that is configured pluggable is prepared.
