Abstract

The invention provides a communication single board and an optical module power supply management method. The communication single board comprises an optical module, a power supply module and a control circuit. And the control circuit is used for determining the optical module in an idle state on the communication single board and controlling the power supply module to stop supplying power to the optical module in the idle state. According to the invention, no-load power supply to the optical module by the power supply module in the optical communication equipment can be avoided, so that unnecessary energy waste generated by the optical communication equipment is improved.
