Abstract: An optical source link transmission device includes a sending end module and a receiving end module. A master optical source link, a backup optical source link, a master data channel, and a backup data channel are integrated into the sending end module; and a master receiving link and a backup receiving link are integrated into the receiving end module. An optical source link transmission method includes: sending channel handover information when detecting failure information of service signals, and performing a handover between a master optical source link and a backup optical source link, and a handover between a master data channel and a backup data channel according to the channel handover information received. The present invention can provide an effective protecting measure for the photoelectric signal transmission in the optical source link, and improve the reliability of the photoelectric integrated device.
