ABSTRACT:
A wavelength converter and a wavelength division-multiplexing optical communication apparatus automatically generate clock signals of a specified frequency that match send/receive digital signals and regenerates timing for the send/receive digital signals. The wavelength converter includes: optical/electrical signal converters (2A,2B) that convert input optical signals into electric digital signals; clock generator circuits (4A,4B) that automatically identify the transmission mode for digital signals and generate phase-synchronized clocks of a specified frequency that match the signal transmission mode; timing regeneration circuits (6A,6B) that regenerate clock timing for the digital signals based upon the phase-synchronized clocks from the clock generator circuits; and electric/optical converters (3A,3B) that convert the digital signals from the timing regeneration circuits into optical signals of a specified wavelength.
