Design and achievement of an efficient low-order pointer multiplexing and mapping scheme

With the improvement of people’s living standard, the requirement of network is higher and higher. The rate and capacity of network communication are rising all the time, it ’s outstanding on the backbone networks. The rate of backbone network had improved from 10G to 100G in recent years. This change also put forward new requirement for optical network equipment . The key technologies of lower order cross-connect equipment is discussing in this passage. This passage mainly discusses the following aspects: time division multiplexing of STM-1 lower-order pointer interpretation and lower -order pointer generation. By using the technologies discussed in this passage, the lower -order cross-connect devices has the higher cross-connect capacity under consuming the same logic resource, and the equipment will meet the requirement of the backbone network transmission capacity.
