Abstract
The information transfer method includes: determining an indicator of a start bit in a protection time slot or a preamble time slot of a laser, and establishing a communication channel according to the indicator of the start bit; inserting Operation Administration and Maintenance (OAM) information of a Long Reach-Passive Optical Network (LR-PON) device into an upstream frame sent to an Optical Line Terminal (OLT) device by the LR-PON device at a position indicated by the indicator of the start bit, and transporting the upstream frame to the OLT device through the communication channel. Therefore, OAM functions of the LR-PON device are extended, so that the OAM information can be transported by the LR-PON device independently, and OAM characteristics of the LR-PON device are enhanced. For example, PON protection is better supported, and the speed and success ratio of protection switching of a PON system are increased.
