The second converter receives the scrambled packets from the target apparatus, and subjects the received packets to serial-to-parallel conversion. The descrambling device descrambles the packets subjected to the serial-to-parallel conversion. The detector detects an error from the error detecting code of each of the descrambled packets. Upon detection of the error, the retransmission request unit requests the target apparatus to retransmit the packet in which the error is detected.
