Chapter 1 PA-POS-1OC3 Overview

Using Statistics to Estimate Link Loss and Power Budget

Encapsulation Method Support

The following encapsulation methods are supported by the PA-POS-1OC3:

•RFC 1619 PPP over SONET/SDH

We recommend that you refer to the Internet Draft Enabling Transparency for the PPP over SONET/SDH Mapping, which is recognized by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG) as an approved addendum to RFC 1619.

•High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC)

•Frame Relay

Using Statistics to Estimate Link Loss and Power Budget

Statistical models more accurately determine the power budget than standard worst-case methods. Determining the link loss with statistical methods requires accurate knowledge of variations in the data link components. Statistical power budget analysis is beyond the scope of this document. For further information, refer to ITU-T standards and your equipment specifications.

The following publications contain information on determining attenuation and power budget:

•T1E1.2/92-020R2 ANSI, the Draft American National Standard for Telecommunications entitled Broadband ISDN Customer Installation Interfaces: Physical Layer Specification.

•Power Margin Analysis, AT&T Technical Note, TN89-004LWP, May 1989.
