DESCRIPTION:
Look no further David T. Johnson I spent the likes of three days trying to find a book that had a realistic application towards ATM and SONET/SDH technology. Practically by mistake I got lucky and found this one, (via the local bookstore). Not to say that others don't share the same depth, it's just that this one has a format that flows very nicely and is very well organized in thought and technolgy. It also seems to have the best collection of graphics, especially for understanding the bigger picture of device connectivity. It also provides a great history as to how the industry and need for this technology evolv. coverage of different communications technologies J This book comes as a handy reference when you need to look up stuff quickly. For instance if you want to check out K1 K2 bytes in a SONET frame and what they do, you can easily find it in this book. In a similar way it covers a broad range of topics, such as ATM, Frame Relay, SONET/SDH, digital hierarchy, xDSL etc.Its not a definative guide since it does not cover any theoretical aspects of the technologies but still a good everyday reference with tons of pages.

You'll also find in-depth information on all available broadband communications - FDDI, DQDB, frame relay, SMDS, ATM, SONET, access technologies, and the BISDN architecture protocol layers - and data that helps you compare the strengths and weaknesses of each in real-world usage. Widely praised for completeness and clarity, it has now been expanded to keep you ahead of the curve on the latest developments and revolutionary technologies: access technologies, such as ADSL, HDSL, and X-DLS, Cable Modems, LMDS, MMDS, and Gigabit Ethernet - the missing pieces of end-to-end broadband communication, now included in this edition. Access architecture, including the various public access network options such as FTTC, HFC, DBS, and wireless that take advantage of the new access technologies Broadband Intelligent Network (IN), including potential ATM-based broadband IN architecture and its migration options to support broadb
