Subscriber apparatus, optical communication system and optical signal monitoring method
A subscriber device in an optical communication system including a subscriber device, a user device connected to the subscriber device, an optical switch that relays an optical signal transmitted from the subscriber device to a destination device, a wavelength control unit that allocates a wavelength to the subscriber device, and an optical switch control unit that controls the optical switch such that the optical signal transmitted from the subscriber device is output to another port connected to a transmission line corresponding to a transfer destination on a path to the destination device. The subscriber device includes a wavelength monitoring unit that monitors a wavelength of the optical signal transmitted from the user device and a transceiver that transmits and receives the optical signal to and from another device. The wavelength monitoring unit instructs the user device to use an appropriate wavelength when the wavelength of the optical signal transmitted from the user device is different from the wavelength allocated by the wavelength control unit. When the wavelength of the optical signal transmitted from the user device is identical to the wavelength allocated by the wavelength control unit, the subscriber device transmits the optical signal through the optical switch.
