The SDH/SONET (Synchronous Digital Hierachy)
system is the result of developments and evolution in the transmission
networks that form the basic transport platforms for all kinds of telecommunications
networks and services.
SDH can be defined as a series of recommendations
and network elements that allow large transmission infrastructures to
be managed in a standardized way. The result is an architecture that is
relatively simple to implement and makes it easier to develop and connect
networks on a worldwide scale, all at a reasonable cost.
