22 SONET / SDH first column in SPE – path overhead updated 1/2002

23 SONET / SDH Section overhead
Alignment bytes (A1 & A2)– framing and synchronization – pattern F628hex Identification byte (C1)–unique id for the STS-1 frame Parity byte (B1) Order-wire byte (E1)– bytes in consecutive frames – form a communication channel between regenerators updated 1/2002

24 SONET / SDH Section overhead
User’s byte (F1)– bytes in consecutive frames form a channel for user needs at the section level Management bytes (D1, D2 and D3)- 3 bytes per frame in consecutive frames = 192 kbps for OAM updated 1/2002

25 SONET / SDH Line Overhead
Pointer bytes (H1, H2, H3)– 3 bytes – identify location of the payload Line Parity byte (B2) Automatic Protection Switching bytes 2 bytes (K1, K2) – consecutive frames- 128 kbps channel to detect problems in multiplexers updated 1/2002

26 SONET / SDH Line Overhead
