Abstract: It is possible to determine, with a simple configuration, that the connection direction of a cable is the reverse direction. A cable is connected for use between a transmission device and a reception device, and transmits data in one direction. A connection direction determination unit determines whether the connection direction is the reverse direction, on the basis of a result of voltage monitoring at a predetermined position on a power-supply line. When the connection direction is determined to be the reverse direction, the information transmission unit transmits information indicating that the connection direction is the reverse direction, to the transmission device or the reception device.

Abstract: There is provided an optical waveguide that performs propagation only in a reference mode at a first wavelength. Communication is performed using light of a second wavelength that enables the optical waveguide to perform propagation in at least a first order mode in addition to the reference mode. When light entering the optical waveguide deviates with respect to an optical axis or deviates angularly, propagation is performed in at least the first order mode in addition to the reference mode, the first order mode being generated due to the deviation with respect to the optical axis or the angular deviation. This results in a reduction in a loss of coupling of optical power. This makes it possible to relax the accuracy with respect to a deviation with respect to an optical axis or an angular deviation, and thus to reduce costs.
