Abstract:
The present invention discloses a passive optical network communications method, reporting, by an optical network unit, ONU, a calibration record of the ONU, where the calibration record includes an ID of a calibrated wavelength channel; sending a first message to the ONU when the OLT determines, according to the calibration record, that a target wavelength channel ID corresponding to a target wavelength channel to which the ONU needs to switch is not in the calibration record, where the first message includes a forced wavelength switching flag; and instructing the ONU to switch to the calibrated target wavelength channel. In this way, the ONU can implement wavelength switching quickly after calibrating a new wavelength channel so as to perform data communication over the calibrated new wavelength channel.

Claim (Index 2):
The data communications method according to  claim 1 , wherein the first message further comprises a forced calibration flag, which is used to instruct the ONU to switch to the target wavelength channel after all new wavelength channels are calibrated, wherein the new wavelength channels are not calibrated, new wavelength channels comprise the target wavelength channel.
