Abstract:
A communication system includes three or more nodes and a multi-core fiber having a plurality of cores, the multi-core fiber being used in at least a partial segment of the connection between the nodes is provided. One node of the nodes is connected to the multi-core fiber and includes a connector configured to add and drop a signal to and from an allocated core exclusively allocated from among the cores as a communication path between the one node and another node of the nodes and/or configured to relay a signal transmitted through another core of the cores allocated for communication between other nodes in the multi-core fiber connected to the one node, and a relative positional relationship between a connection position of the allocated core in which a signal is added or dropped in the connector and a connection position of another core in which a signal is relayed in the connector is the same for all of the nodes connected to the multi-core fiber.

Claim (Index 11):
The communication system according to  claim 1 , wherein\n the connector includes:\n at least one connecting portion configured to add or drop a signal to or from the core through which communication with another node adjacent to the one node in which the connector is provided; and \n at least one signal relay portion configured to relay a signal transmitted through the core allocated for communication between the other nodes in the multi-core fiber connected to the one node, and \n the number of the at least one signal relay portion provided in the connector is equal to or larger than the number of other node of the nodes through which a communication path from the one node to a communication target node of the nodes passes.
