Multiservice SONET

Since the late 1980s, SONET has been the workhorse of the telecommunications industry.  Over the last 20 years, line rates and capacities have gone up, types of interfaces have increased and manufacturers continue to improve their products with new features and lower costs.  Whether your network is carrying a single voice call or a 10 Gbps data pipe, SONET provides the same transport dependability that the industry has come to rely on. 

The key features and benefits of Multiservice SONET include:

  • Standards-Based – ensures compatibility across spans and between vendors
  • Deterministic & Predictable – robust, voice-centric heritage extends high quality of service to all traffic
  • Multiservice Capable – equally effective at carrying TDM and packet-based traffic including ATM, Ethernet and MPLS
  • Fault Tolerant – protected rings provide 50 msec recovery from node and span failures
  • Mature Technology – well known technology and provisioning model
  • Price/Performance – one of the most cost effective architectures up to 10 Gbps

SONET provides an excellent network infrastructure for all types of mission critical traffic.
