What is SONET/SDH?
SONET (Synchronous Optical Network) and SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) are standardized digital communication protocols used to transport high-bandwidth data over optical fiber. They are commonly used in telecommunications networks to provide reliable and efficient transmission of voice, data, and video signals.
What other technologies are related to SONET/SDH?
SONET/SDH Competitor Technologies
OTN
Optical Transport Network (OTN) is a more modern technology that offers similar functionality to SONET/SDH with improved efficiency and features, and thus, it can be a competitor.
Frame Relay
Frame Relay is a WAN technology that was used as an alternative to SONET/SDH for data transport, particularly in the past.
ATM
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is a connection-oriented technology that competed with SONET/SDH for high-speed data transport.
Carrier Ethernet
Carrier Ethernet provides Ethernet services over a wide area network and is often used as a more flexible and cost-effective alternative to SONET/SDH.
Ethernet
Ethernet is a dominant technology for local area networks and increasingly for wide area networks. Carrier Ethernet solutions compete with SONET/SDH.
