Abstract;We are developing a new add-drop multiplexer (ADM) ring system that utilizes the functions of our existing 2.4-/10-Gbit/s ADM ring systems. It has i) some new interfaces, so it can handle various kinds of traffic such as SDH, SONET, and GbE, ii) an extension of the offered CoS (class of service) domain based on advanced standard technologies such as a 10-Gbit/s STM (synchronous transmission mode) interface, and iii) improved functions for control and supervision by the network element operating system. These features support flexible and economical networks. (SDH: synchronous digital hierarchy, SONET: synchronous optical network, GbE: gigabit Ethernet) (author abst.)
