Introduction to SONET SONET stands for Synchronous Optical Network. Standard for optical telecommunications transport. It defines optical carrier (OC) levels. Synchronous transport signals (STSs) for the fiber-
optic–based transmission hierarchy.

Signals: Electrical signaling levels called STSs (Synchronous Transport Signals, (STMs)). Optical signals are called OCs (Optical Carriers)
Devices: STS Multiplexer/ Demultiplexer, Regenerator, Add/Drop Multiplexer and Terminals
Connections: SONET devices are connected using sections, lines, and paths

SONET Frames
Each synchronous transfer signal STS-n is composed of 8000 frames. Each frame is a two-dimensional matrix of bytes with 9 rows by 90 ×
n columns.
7/17
A SONET STS-n signal is transmitted at 8000 frames per second. Each byte in a SONET frame can carry a digitized voice channel. In SONET, the data rate of an STS-n signal is n times the data rate of an STS-1
signal. In SONET, the duration of any frame is 125 μs.
