Summary
Explains the relationship between TI, first generation transport technology and SONET, a second generation transport technology. Covers SONET configuration, administration and maintenance.
Table of Contents
| Synchronous networks for optimum performance Today's high-speed network applications depend on the latest in high speed, synchronous transport technology for reliable operations |
| SONET and T1: Architectures for Digital Transport Networks gives you the big picture on SONET, the second-generation digital carrier system, placing it in the context of the widely used first-generation system, T1 |
| This rich resource offers detailed information on the how's and why's of managing a SONET system |
| SONET and T1: Architectures for Digital Transport Networks explains how to structure and maintain a high-performance network, using real-life examples of systems currently in use in a variety of business, industrial, and institutional settings |
| In addition, this book shows how to use SONET to interface with a variety of local and international networks, and to minimize data loss when communicating with older systems |
| Key chapters explore |
| The basics of digital carrier systems |
| Timing and synchronization in digital networks |
| Payload mapping and management |
| Topologies and configurations, including add-drop and cross-connect |
| Operations, administration, and maintenance of digital networks |
| Case studies of existing SONET systems |
| Appendices provide valuable background material on the structure, function, and performance of fiber optics, and a review of ATM technology |
| Filled with practical and specific information, SONET and T1: Architectures for Digital Transport Networks provides a thorough introduction to the latest in digital network technology |
