An optical transmission equipment in an optical communication system interconnecting two optical transmission equipment sets by a main transmission line and a backup transmission line. An optical amplifier amplifies and outputs optical signals from one transmission line in use, interconnecting the optical transmission equipment concerned with neighboring upstream optical transmission equipment, and outputs the optical signals including a signal component and a noise component. A controller controls an optical signal level so that a signal component in the optical signal reaches a predetermined level. The controller corrects the optical signal level when the transmission line transmitting the optical signal is switched either from the main transmission line to the backup transmission line or from the backup transmission line to the main transmission line, either between the optical transmission equipment concerned and a neighboring upstream optical transmission equipment, or between other two optical transmission equipment sets located on an upstream side.
