Abstract
There is provided a different system transfer method for a ring transmission system and a transmission apparatus for transferring the ring transmission system constructed in the UPSR system to the BLSR system while a line is in service. A control board of the UPSR system is replaced by a control board of the BLSR system. By changing over a path switch, a multiplexing/demultiplexing conversion board of the UPSR system on the non-operating side is replaced by a first multiplexing/demultiplexing conversion board of the BLSR system which is set so as to operate in the UPSR system. Also, by changing over the path switch again, a multiplexing/demultiplexing conversion board of the UPSR system on the non-operating side is replaced by a second multiplexing/demultiplexing conversion board of the BLSR system which is set so as to operate in the UPSR system. Next, the first and second multiplexing/demultiplexing conversion boards are made to operate in the BLSR system, and a line arrangement is changed from the UPSR system to the BLSR system.
