SATURN USER NETWORK INTERFACE FOR 2488 MBIT/S
APS bytes, the data communication channels and provides full control and observability of the
transport and path overhead bytes through register access. Figure 19, the STS-48c (STM-16c)
mapping is shown. In this mapping, the entire SPE is used for POS Frames.

Transport Overhead Bytes
A1, A2:
J0
The frame alignment bytes (A1, A2) locate the SONET frame in the STS-48c
(STM-16c) serial stream.
The J0 byte is currently defined as the STS-48c (STM-16c) section trace byte
for SONET/SDH. J0 byte is not scrambled by the frame synchronous
scrambler.
Z0:
B1:
The Z0 bytes are currently defined as the STS-48c (STM-16c) section growth
bytes for SONET/SDH. Z0 bytes are not scrambled by the frame synchronous
scrambler.
The section bit interleaved parity byte provides a section error monitoring
function.
In the transmit direction, the S/UNI-2488 calculates the B1 byte over all bits of
the previous frame after scrambling. The calculated code is then placed in the
current frame before scrambling.
In the receive direction, the S/UNI-2488 calculates the B1 code over the
current frame and compares this calculation with the B1 byte received in the
following frame. B1 errors are accumulated in an error event counter.
D1 - D3:
The section data communications channel provides a 192 kbit/s data
communications channel for network element to network element
communications.
