sonet


short for synchronous optical network, a standard for connecting fiber-optic transmission systems. sonet was proposed by bellcore in the middle 1980s and is now an ansi standard
sonet defines interface standards at the physical layer of the osi seven-layer model. the standard defines a hierarchy of interface rates that allow data streams at different rates to be multiplexed. sonet establishes optical carrier (oc) levels from 51.8 mbps (oc-1) to 9.95 gbps (oc-192). prior rate standards used by different countries specified rates that were not compatible for multiplexing. with the implementation of sonet, communication carriers throughout the world can interconnect their existing digital carrier and fiber optic systems
(synchronous optical network) a fiber-optic transmission system for high-speed digital traffic. employed by telephone companies and common carriers, speeds range from 51 mbps to 40 gbps.
sonet is an intelligent system that provides advanced network management and a standard optical interface. specified in the broadband isdn (b-isdn) standard, sonet backbones are widely used to aggregate t1 and t3 lines. the european counterpart to sonet is the synchronous digital hierarchy, and the term “sonet/sdh” is widely used when referring to sonet.
sonet is the american national standards inst-tute standard for synchronous data transmission on optical media. the international equivalent of sonet is synchronous digital hierarchy (sdh). together, they ensure standards so that digital networks can interconnect internationally and that existing conventional transmission systems can take advantage of optical media through tributary attachments.
sonet provides standards for a number of line rates up to the maximum line rate of 9.953 gigabits per second (gbps). actual line rates approaching 20 gigabits per second are possible. sonet is considered to be the foundation for the physical layer of the broadband isdn (bisdn).

asynchronous transfer mode runs as a layer on top of sonet as well as on top of other technologies.

sonet defines a base rate of 51.84 mbps and a set of multiples of the base rate known as “optical carrier levels (ocx).”
to be sonet, is to be s-xually frustrated, due to lack of, and as a result, become unable to talk sense or even type/say anything sensible or correct. also making s-xual references to animals, perhaps through traumatic self experiences regarding.
the inability to spell, or to string together a meaningful sentence, usually caused by lack of punani. see #grits.
