Abstract
In an optical transmission apparatus, a unit includes a first connection section, a second connection section, a branching section, a first detection section, and a second detection section. The first connection section connects to a first component. The second connection section connects to a second component. The branching section is disposed at a preceding stage of the second connection section and outputs signal light to the first component through the first connection section. The first detection section determines whether the first component receives the signal light output from the branching section. The second detection section is disposed at a subsequent stage of the second connection section and detects the signal light.
