Standarized Protocols
Standarized Protocols
01.
Survivability
- SDH protection rings and meshing enables auto reconfiguration and traffic routing in the event of a network failure (power or fibre cuts are common in Iraq)
02.
Functionality
- Efficient add and drop functionality that allows simple cross connection without the full hierarchical multiplexing.
03.
Standarization
- SDH standardisation enables interconnectivity between different suppliers through support of common digital and optical standards and interfaces.
