The document provides an overview of the Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) network technology. It describes how SDH was developed to overcome limitations of Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (PDH) networks by introducing a synchronous framing structure and management capabilities. Key aspects of SDH include standardized transmission rates based on multiples of 155.52 Mbps, synchronous multiplexing of tributary signals using containers and virtual containers, and overhead bytes for functions like frame alignment, error monitoring and network management.
