Description

A comprehensive guide to SDH, SONET, and OTN The ComSoc Guide to Next Generation Optical Transport provides a unique overview of SDH and OTN for engineers who are new to the field, as well as manufacturers, network operators, and graduate students who need a basic understanding of the topics. Fully up-to-date with the latest research and written by one of the foremost experts in the field, it covers: Network architectures Frames and structures Network modeling Packet transport network modeling Frequency justification Protection mechanisms Mapping methodologies Concatenation SDH and SONET overhead processing The book is complemented with 200 illustrations that explain key concepts in an easy-to-understand format, while references point readers to the appropriate standards documents for further reading. Whether you're new to the field or just need a basic understanding of SDH, this is a must-have guide.
