The Fundamentals of SDH
Overview The SDH signal has built-in performance monitoring, maintenance, provisioning, and operations information directly within the signal format. It contains mechanisms to allow for timing inconsistencies throughout the network, and provides a means for transporting a wide variety of services. It allows tributary drop and insert while reducing equipment cost and timing delay to provide on/off ramps to the industry analogy of the “global superhighway”. Rings may be designed to provide a high degree of service quality, even in the presence of multiple failure conditions. SDH networks will increasingly incorporate intelligent network elements for more flexible network configuration. These advantages add up to provide a powerful network standard that will continue to grow in popularity into the future. As SDH brings many new advances to the telecommunications network, it also brings many new testing challenges.
