Abstract:
A method is presented for supporting SNCP over a packet network connecting to two SDH sub-networks and transporting one or more SDH paths that are SNCP-protected in both SDH sub-networks. The packet network connects to each of two sub-network interconnection points by a working path and a protection path. The packet sub-network may provide the same type of path protection as an SDH sub-network using SNCP, while avoiding bandwidth duplication.

Claim (Index 34):
A system comprising the first and third devices according to  claim 25 , for use with a fourth device coupled between the second and third networks, the third device comprising:\n a sixth port for communicating with the first device over the third network; a seventh port for coupling to the second network; and an eighth port for communicating with the fourth device over the third network, wherein the third device is operative to transport data traffic between the sixth and seventh ports, and wherein the third device is operative to transport data traffic between the seventh and eighth ports.
