Abstract
Embodiments of this application disclose a switch and a communication system. The switch in embodiments of this application includes a first laser and a first optical splitter. The first laser is configured to provide a first laser light. The first optical splitter is configured to split the first laser light into a first downstream laser light and a second downstream laser light, where the first downstream laser light is used for transmitting information to a first terminal, and the second downstream laser light is used for transmitting information to a second terminal.

-9. (canceled)
A switch, comprising:
- a first laser and a first optical splitter,
- wherein the switch is applied to a local area network, the local area network comprises the switch, a first terminal, and a second terminal, and the first terminal and the second terminal are connected to the switch,
- wherein the first laser is configured to provide a first laser light, and
- wherein the first optical splitter is configured to split the first laser light into a first downstream laser light and a second downstream laser light, wherein first information is transmitted to the first terminal using the first downstream laser light, and wherein second information is transmitted to the second terminal using the second downstream laser light.
A switch, comprising:
- a second laser,
- wherein the switch is applied to a local area network, wherein the local area network comprises the switch and a terminal connected to the switch, wherein the second laser is configured to send a second laser light to the terminal, and
- wherein the second laser light is used by the terminal to load information onto the second laser light, to obtain a second information-loaded laser light onto which the information is loaded, and the second information-loaded laser light onto which the information is loaded is used by the terminal to transmit the information to the switch.
A switch, comprising:
- a second laser and a second optical splitter,
- wherein the switch is applied to a local area network, wherein the local area network comprises the switch, a first terminal, and a second terminal, and wherein the first terminal and the second terminal are connected to the switch,
- wherein the second laser is configured to provide a second laser light,
- wherein the second optical splitter is configured to split the second laser light into a third laser light and a fourth laser light, wherein the third laser light is transmitted to the first terminal, and the fourth laser light is transmitted to the second terminal,
- wherein the third laser light is used by the first terminal to load third information onto the third laser light, to obtain a third information-loaded laser light onto which the third information is loaded,
- wherein the fourth laser light is used by the second terminal to load fourth information onto the fourth laser light, to obtain a fourth information-loaded laser light onto which the fourth information is loaded, and
- wherein the third information-loaded laser light onto which the third information is loaded is used by the first terminal to transmit the third information to the switch, and the fourth information-loaded laser light onto which the fourth information is loaded is used by the second terminal to transmit the fourth information to the switch.
