Synchronous Optical Networking (SONET) and Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) are standardized protocols that transfer multiple digital bit streams synchronously over optical fiber using lasers or highly coherent light from light-emitting diodes (LEDs). At low transmission rates, data can also be transferred via an electrical interface. The method was developed to replace the plesiochronous digital hierarchy (PDH) system for trans
This document is a broad outline of what Synchronous Optical NETwork (SONET) technology is, and how it works.
In optical communications, SDH plays a vital role by enabling the efficient transmission of digital signals over fiber optic cables. It achieves this through its hierarchical structure, which allows for the
These frames are then transmitted out onto optical fiber links, and there is the possibility for multiple SDH multiplexers to each give out one wavelength of a WDM system.
The SDH specifications define optical interfaces that allow transmission of lower-rate (e.g., PDH) signals at a common synchronous rate. A benefit of SDH is that it allows multiple vendors'' optical
