  • Patent number: 12316381
    Abstract: A communication system includes a first device and a second device connected through an electro-optical composite cable. The electro-optical composite cable includes an optical fiber and a power supply cable. The optical fiber is used to transmit a data signal. The power supply cable is used to transmit a direct current. The first device is configured to send a first alternating-current signal to the second device through the power supply cable. The second device is configured to switch a running status based on the first alternating-current signal.

  • Patent number: 11876382
    Abstract: A connection manner identification method includes power sourcing equipment separately sending load adjustment indications to powered devices by using data ports, where each load adjustment indication in the load adjustment indications indicates a corresponding powered device to adjust a load. The powered devices are separately connected to power supply ports of the power sourcing equipment by using power supply cables, and the powered devices are separately connected to the data ports of the power sourcing equipment by using data cables. The power sourcing equipment obtains output power changes of the power supply ports caused by load adjustment of the powered devices, and the power sourcing equipment determines, based on the output power changes, a first data port and a power supply port that are connected to a same powered device in the powered devices.
