SONET Networking<br />
Hub Application<br />
Underfilled fibers feed into a SONET hub which consolidates the traffic onto one<br />
fiber for transport to the switching node. At the switching node, the traffic is segregated<br />
into switched and non-switched (special service dedicated lines), DS-1<br />
and DS-3, or any combination thereof.<br />
ATM Interconnect<br />
SONET enables network providers, including telephone companies or other service<br />
providers, to efficiently deliver wideband and broadband service to their business<br />
customers. With an ATM multiplexer or switch deployed at the provider<br />
location, DS-1, DS-3, and OC-3 bandwidths can be delivered directly to business<br />
customers’ locations.<br />
The ATM device can interface transport products offered by several vendors.<br />
Narrowband service, such as ISDN, can be delivered on various NGDLC access<br />
products using an OC-3 or OC-12 feed to the host switching node.<br />
