  • Patent number: 8897653
    Abstract: A subscriber-side optical network unit (ONU) includes a control LSI for outputting a data signal and a pre-bias signal at fixed intervals, an optical transmitter-receiver for producing optical output in response to these signals, and a light-emission error preventing circuit for preventing light-emission error. First and second light-emission error detecting circuits output an abnormality detection alarm signal when no rising edge occurs in the data signal and pre-bias signal for a prescribed period of time. An OR element, when receiving the abnormality detection alarm signal from at least one of the first and second light-emission error detecting circuits, supplies the optical transmitter-receiver with a shutdown signal and halts the optical output.

  • Patent number: 7352967
    Abstract: A data transmission system includes subscriber units and a central office unit which are interconnected via optical fibers. The central office unit multiplexes a video signal with signals other than the video signal to deliver them to the multiple subscriber units. Each subscriber unit demultiplexes a received signal, and includes a wavelength division multiplexer/demultiplexer having a function of eliminating a particular wavelength signal in the subscriber unit.
