Abstract
A communication device includes a first laser driver, a second laser driver, a light emitting and receiving component, and a processor. The light emitting and receiving component is connected to a passive optical network to send and/or receive an optical signal. The light emitting and receiving component converts the optical signal into a first electrical signal and outputs the first electrical signal to one of the first laser driver and the second laser driver. One of the first laser driver and the second laser driver converts the first electrical signal into a second electrical signal, and outputs the second electrical signal to the processor. The processor disables another one of the first laser driver and the second laser driver.
