Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to telecommunications, Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) and Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH). More particularly, the present invention relates to methods and apparatus for preventing data loss on LCAS sinks. Background technique
[0002] The well-known European Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) or Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) is a commonly used telecommunication transmission scheme, which is designed to accommodate DS-1 (T1) and E1 services and their multiples (DS-3 and E-3). The DS-1 signal consists of up to twenty-four time division multiplexed DS-0 signals plus overhead bits. Each DS-0 signal is a 64kb / s signal and is the smallest bandwidth allocation in a digital network, ie enough for a single telephone connection. The E1 signal consists of up to thirty-two time-division multiplexed DS-0 signals, at least one of which DS-0 carries overhead information.
