Chapter 6Client Layers of the Optical Layer A. In the backbone networks a. Synchronous Optical Network (SONET)/ Synchronous Digital Hierachy (SDH) b. Internet Protocol (IP) c. Asyuchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) • In the metro networks a. Gigabit Ethernet b. Fiber channel
6.1.1 Multiplexing • The synchronous transport signal level-1 (STS-1) has the basic signal rate 51.84 Mb/s • The digital signal-0 has the rate 64 Kb/s
6.1.1 Multiplexing STM-1 (synchronous transport module-1) has the rate 155.52 Mb/s which is the same as STS-3
The path layer is responsible for end-to-end connections. The line layer is terminated at each intermediate line terminal (TM) or add/drop multiplexer (ADM). The line layer multiplexes a number of path layer connections onto a single link between two modes. The physical layer is responsible for actual transmission of bits across the fiber.
Section Overhead a. Framing (A1/A2):for delineating the frame. b. Section Trace (J0)/Section Growth (Z0): J0 is present in the first STS-1 in STS-N is used to carry an identifier.Z0 is present in the remaining STS-1s and its use is to be determined. c. Section BIP-8 (B1):This byte is located in the first STS-1 and is used to monitor the BER of each section (a bit interleaved parity)
d. Orderwire (E1):for maintenance (voice channel). e. Section User Channel (F1):for inserting additional user-specific information. f. Section Data Communication Channel (D1,D2,D3):for maintenance purposes such as alarms, and control.
Line BIP-8 (B2): To carry a bit interleaved parity check value of each STS-1 within the STS-N. APS channel (K1,K2): To provide a channel for carrying signaling information during automatic protection switching (APS). Line Data Communication Channel (D4~D12): To carry a line data communication channel for maintenance purposes such as alarms, monitoring, and control.
Path Overhead STS Path trace(J1):To carry a path identifier. STS Path BIP-8(B3):To carry a bit interleaved parity check value for the previous STS SPE. STS Path Signal label(C2):To indicate the content of the STS SPE (each type of signal mapped into a SONET STS-1). Path Status(G1):To convey the performance (error count) from the destination to the source.
