Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce the total cost by coupling each optical output of electrooptic conversion circuits provided in duplicate with an optical coupler, connecting one optical transmission line to a receiver side, branching the line into two by an optical demultiplexer and selecting one output. CONSTITUTION:An input signal 10 is fed to either of electrooptic conversion circuits 50, 60 by a switch 20. Any optical output is subject to interrupt control from the circuit 50 or 60 by using a control signal 30 or 40. An optical coupler 70 couples the optical outputs of the circuits 50, 60 and outputs an optical signal of the circuit selected by the switch 20. An optical signal sent through an optical transmission line is distributed to both photoelectric conversion circuits 100, 110 with an optical demultiplexer 90 at the receiver side. A switch 120 selects one of electric signals converted by the circuits 100, 110 and outputs the result as an output signal 130. Thus, the protection system is attained through one fiber cable while redundancy is provided to the device.
