The lowest level of the T-carrier hierarchy is the T-1, created by combining 24
DS-0 signals
A T1 multiplexer combines the 8-bit samples from 24 DS-0 channels + one
framing bit = (8x24) + 1 = 193 bit T1 frame
This frame is then transmitted 8000 time per second, resulting in a nominal data
rate of 193 x 8000 = 1.544 Mbps for a T1 carrier.
Inverse Multiplexing with a T-1C Carrier
• A T1C circuit is an inverse multiplexed bundle of two T1 circuits.
• Each T1C circuit provides a nominal data rate of 3.152 Mbps.
• The sending T1C mux transmits the signal by splitting it up between two T1 circuits
• The receiving mux then recombines the incoming data streams from both T1
circuits.

Clock Synch & Bit Slips

Pulse Stuffing
• Pulse Stuffing: synchronization to avoid data loss due to slips
• Output rate > R1+R2
– i.e. DS2, 6.312Mbps=4x1.544Mbps + 136 Kbps
• Pulse stuffing format
– Fixed-length master frames with each channel allowed to
stuff or not to stuff a single bit in the master frame.
– Redundant stuffing specifications
– signaling or specification bits (other than data bits) are
distributed across a master frame.

Typical U.S. Optical Long-Haul Network
SONET: Overview
• Synchronous Optical NETwork
• North American TDM physical layer standard for optical
fiber communications
• 8000 frames/sec. (Tframe = 125 sec)
– compatible with North American digital hierarchy
• SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) elsewhere
– Needs to carry E1 and E3 signals
– Compatible with SONET at higher speeds
• Greatly simplifies multiplexing in network backbone
• OA&M support to facilitate network management
• Protection & restoration
SONET simplifies multiplexing
Pre-SONET multiplexing: Pulse stuffing required demultiplexing all
channels

• BLSR: Bidirectional Line Switched Ring
• 1 working fiber pair; 1 protection fiber pair
• Bidirectional
– Working traffic & protection traffic use same route in working pair
– 1:N like
• Line restoration provided by either:
– Restoring a failed span
– Switching the line around the ring

The Problem with Rings
• Managing bandwidth can be complex
• Increasing transmission rate in one span affects all equipment in
the ring
• Introducing WDM means stacking SONET ADMs to build parallel
rings
• Distance limitations on ring size implies many rings need to be
traversed in long distance
• End-to-end protection requires ring-interconnection mechanisms
Managing 1 ring is simple; Managing many rings is very complex
Mesh Topology Networks using SONET
Cross-Connects
• Cross-Connects are nxn switches
• Interconnects SONET streams
• More flexible and efficient than rings
• Need mesh protection & restoration

From SONET to WDM
SONET WDM
• combines multiple wavelengths into a
• combines multiple SPEs into common fiber
high speed digital stream
• Optical ADMs can be built to insert and
• ADMs and crossconnects drop wavelengths in same manner as in
interconnected to form SONET ADMS
networks • Optical cross-connects can also be built
• SPE paths between clients • All-optical backbone networks will
from logical topology provide end-to-end wavelength
• High reliability through connections
protection switching • Protection schemes for recovering from
failures are being developed to provide
high reliability in all-optical networks
