Abstract: An optical access network system having a function of correcting upstream signal waveform distortions occurring in the PON section, wherein a central office side apparatus comprises a main controller to notify each subscriber connection apparatus of a transmission grant period, an equalizer of a tap gain adaptive control type to correct waveform distortions of signals received from the subscriber connection apparatuses, an equalizer controller, and a parameter table for storing, for each subscriber connection apparatus, the initial values of tap gains to be set for the equalizer. The main controller issues a switchover request for switching the equalization characteristic to the equalizer controller each time notifying a subscriber connection apparatus of a transmission grant period, and the equalizer controller retrieves the initial values of the tap gains for the subscriber connection apparatus from the parameter table in response to the switchover request, and sets these values to the equalizer.

Abstract: It is configured to have a first optical line terminal for transmitting a video signal of a first wavelength; a second optical line terminal for transmitting a downstream data signal of a second wavelength and receiving an upstream data signal of a third wavelength; and a wavelength division multiplexer for wavelength division multiplexing the video signal and the upstream data signal and the descend data signal, where an attenuator is provided between the second optical line terminal and the wavelength division multiplexer, the attenuator having a characteristic that an attenuation amount given to the second wavelength is larger than an attenuation amount given to the third wavelength.
