6.1.1 Multiplexing
A. The synchronous transport signal level-1
(STS-1) has the basic signal rate 51.84
Mb/s
B. The digital signal-0 has the rate 64 Kb/s

6.1.1 Multiplexing
STM-1 (synchronous transport module-1)
has the rate 155.52 Mb/s which is the
same as STS-3

6.1.2 SONET/SDH Layers
8
The path layer is responsible for end-to-end
connections.
The line layer is terminated at each
intermediate line terminal (TM) or add/drop
multiplexer (ADM). The line layer
multiplexes a number of path layer
connections onto a single link between two
modes.
The physical layer is responsible for actual
transmission of bits across the fiber.

6.1.3 SONET Frame Structure
10
11
Section Overhead
a. Framing (A1/A2):for delineating the frame.
b. Section Trace (J0)/Section Growth (Z0): J0 is
present in the first STS-1 in STS-N is used to
carry an identifier.Z0 is present in the
remaining STS-1s and its use is to be
determined.
c. Section BIP-8 (B1):This byte is located in the
first STS-1 and is used to monitor the BER of
each section (a bit interleaved parity)
12
13
d. Orderwire (E1):for maintenance (voice
channel).
e. Section User Channel (F1):for inserting
additional user-specific information.
f. Section Data Communication Channel
(D1,D2,D3):for maintenance purposes
such as alarms, and control.
14
15
Line BIP-8 (B2): To carry a bit interleaved
parity check value of each STS-1 within
the STS-N.
APS channel (K1,K2): To provide a channel
for carrying signaling information during
automatic protection switching (APS).
Line Data Communication Channel
(D4~D12): To carry a line data
communication channel for maintenance
purposes such as alarms, monitoring, and
control.
16
Path Overhead
STS Path trace(J1):To carry a path identifier.
STS Path BIP-8(B3):To carry a bit
interleaved parity check value for the
previous STS SPE.
STS Path Signal label(C2):To indicate the
content of the STS SPE (each type of
signal mapped into a SONET STS-1).
Path Status(G1):To convey the performance
(error count) from the destination to the
source.
