- Introduction to SONET
- SONET stands for Synchronous Optical NETwork. The SONET format allows different types of formats to be transmitted on one line. SONET is a long term solution for a mid-span-meet between vendors. The other major advantage is that SONET allows ADDING and DROPING signals with a single multiplexer. Communication between various...

- Testing Ethernet Over SONET/SDH
- Data traffic levels continue to increase. As a result, there is a desire to optimize transport networks originally designed for voice to accommodate this traffic. The majority of metro and long-haul networks are based on SONET and SDH, as these protocols carry fixed-bandwidth circuit-switched voice very effectively. Ethernet over SONET/SDH...

- Wavelength Assignment to Minimize the Number of SONET ADMs in WDM Rings
- Optical Wavelength Division Multiplexing WDM rings are being deployed to support SONET/SDH self-healing rings. The cost of such a system is dominated by the SONET Add/Drop Multiplexers ADMs. To minimize the system cost, algorithms must be developed to assign wavelengths to lightpaths in the system so that the number of...
