The Comsoc Guide to Next Generation Optical Transport

Sdh/Sonet/Otn

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

SONET is the American National Standards Institute standard for synchronous data transmission on optical media. The international equivalent of SONET is synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH). Together, they ensure standards so that digital networks can interconnect internationally and that existing conventional transmission systems can take advantage of optical media through tributary attachment. This is the perfect overview for engineers who are new to the field of SDH, as well as manufacturers, network operators, and graduate students who need a basic understanding of SDH. References are included for further reading.
