• Resumen

  • The advancements in telecommunications has led the usage of Synchronous-Digital-Hierarchy (SDH) for inter-connection of networks. Synchronous Digital Hierarchy(SDH) is a standard International Telecommunication Union (ITU). It is deployed atall levels of network infrastructure including access network and long distance trunknetwork. It is based on synchronous multiplexed signal onto a light stream transmittedover optical fiber. The telecommunication has switched over from the traditionalvoice transport to data transport. Though digitized voice is still a very large contributorfor bandwidth as well as for revenue. Therefore, instead of an evolution ofthe existing transport standard, a revolution is necessary to cope up additional datatransport. This revolution is Next Generation SDH. Next Generation SDH enablesnew types of services with more efficient network usage to be easily implementedby utilizing existing infrastructure. Next Generation SDH, enables the simultaneoustransport of heterogeneous services over one wavelength thereby saving networkbuilding and maintenance costs. Ability to reallocate dynamically bandwidth allowsBandwidth on Demand services. Next Generation SDH do not increase the bandwidthof SDH but they render the signals more flexible allowing a more efficient useof the available bandwidth. This project involves designing and implementation of2Mbps bandwidth using SDH, 10Mbps bandwidth using Next Generation-SDH andproviding protection for allocated channel. This captured the attention from worldwidetowards it due to its flexible usage, automatic protection switching, standardfor inter-connecting multiple manufactures and ease of multiplexing. But the use ofSDH has become obsolete with the introduction of Next Generation SDH (NGSDH).This paper will address about both SDH and NGSDH, their features and deficiency ofSDH that lead to NGSDH technology.
