SONET / SDH (1)

Temporal multiplexing optical system
SONET (Synchronous Optical NETwork) by Bellcore
SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) by CCITT
Goals :
Standard = operators interconnexions
Support of MIC US/Europe/Japon identical but grouped differently
To exceed the T3 and E3 (orientation towards Gbps)
Integration of management (OAM, Operation, Administration and Maintenance)

STS-1 (electric) = OC-1 (Optical) = 1 screen by 125microsec (SONET)

OC (Optical Carrier)
STM (Synchronous Transport Module)

Optical Carrier levels
The Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) includes a set of signal rate multiples for transmitting digital signals on optical fiber. The base rate (OC-1) is 51.84 Mbps. OC-2 runs at twice the base rate, OC-3 at three times the base rate, and so forth.
