Robert W. Cubbage

Abstract: Almost everyone that has heard of SONET knows that the acronym stands for Synchronous Optical NETwork. There has been a host of magazine articles on SONET rings. SONET features, even SONET compatibility with digital radio. What has not been highly publicized is the critical relationship between SONET network synchronization, and payload jitter. This paper will address this topic.
