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 40):
The system according to  claim 34 , further comprising the fourth device operable in third and fourth states, the fourth device comprising:\n a ninth port for communicating with the third device over the third network; a tenth port for coupling to the second network; and an eleventh port for communicating with the first or second devices over the third network, wherein in the third state the fourth device is operative to transport data traffic between the ninth and tenth ports, and wherein in the fourth state the fourth device is operative to transport data traffic between the tenth and eleventh ports.
