A communication apparatus includes a high-priority link configured to transmit one or more high-priority packets that have a priority level greater than or equal to a given level; a plurality of low-priority links that are optically coupled to the same transmission destination as the high-priority link and are configured to transmit one or more low-priority packets that have a priority level less than the given level; a first distribution circuit configured to select the one or more high-priority packets from among input packets and distribute the selected one or more high-priority packets to the high-priority link; and a second distribution circuit configured to individually distribute one or more remaining input packets, which are the input packets that have not been distributed to the high-priority link by the first distribution circuit, to the plurality of low-priority links based on distribution information about distributing packets to the plurality of low-priority links. |
