<p>The method involves controlling opening and closing of an optical switch of fiber optical rings (220, 230), if a preset signal is present in one end of each ring for configuring an optical network (200) in one configuration. A predetermined signal is generated for controlling transmission and/or reception amplifiers operating in a power reduction mode to operate in an amplification mode of signals carried by the rings. - An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is also included for an optical communication system configurable in two configurations.</p> |
