Abstract
According the invention, a multiplexed light composed of a signal light of a signal wavelength, and a first route control light of a first route control wavelength different from the signal wavelength or a second route control light of a second route control wavelength different from the signal light and the first route control wavelength is incident to a demultiplexer. The demultiplexer demultiplexes the signal light of the signal wavelength, the first route control light, and the second route control light from the multiplexed light. An interferometer optical switch outputs the signal light from first output port according to the first route control light, and outputs the signal light from second output port according to the second route control light.
