Original Abstract Submitted
A power over fiber system includes power sourcing equipment that outputs power feed light, and a powered device that converts the power feed light from the power sourcing equipment into electric power. The power sourcing equipment includes a power feed control unit that, while causing the power feed light to be output as a light pulse, performs digital modulation on the light pulse and superimposes predetermined information on the power feed light.
