Abstract
[Problem] To allow addition of new functions to an optical module at a low cost.[Solution] An optical transceiver 11a includes a CPU 21 configured to perform download control of a program for executing an additional function to be newly added to the optical transceiver 11a, a wireless transmitting and receiving device 22 configured to receive, in accordance with the download control, the program from a terminal device 13 that stores various programs, and a memory unit 23 configured to store the program that is received. The CPU 21 is configured to perform, by interrupting a monitoring and control signal from a transmission device 12, control to write data related to transmission and reception processing of a Tx 25a and a Rx 26a in accordance with execution of the programs stored in the memory unit 23 in a storage area at a specific address of an EEPROM 24.
