SONET
I. SERVICE DESCRIPTION: SONET provides a dedicated, point-to-point, simultaneous full-duplex optical private line service with synchronous optical network (SONET) transmission at speeds from 45 Mbps to 622 Mbps. SONET provides end-to-end transmission service when originating and terminating via Dedicated Access within the U.S. Mainland. The following bandwidths are available for Inter-Exchange Carrier (IXC) transport between Company-designated Point-of-Presence (POP): DS3 (44.736 Mbps), OC3 (155.520 Mbps), and OC12 (622.08 Mbps). Linear, and Restorable circuits are available for all speeds. Concatenated services are available for OC3 and OC12 bandwidths.
II. DEFINITIONS: The General Definitions apply.
Concatenated joins several fibers together end-to-end resulting in full bandwidth. Concatenated circuits are noted by a "c", e.g., OC3c.
Linear circuit is a circuit that provides a logical SONET ring over a single physical connection.
Restorable circuit is a circuit that provides redundancy via a physical SONET ring topology.
