Signal - Signal Configuration (SONET/SDH)

STS/AU Path (SONET/SDH HOP) up to OC-192/STM-64:

The following diagram shows a test case data path that is terminated
right after SONET/SDH high order path. High order background traffic is
automatically adapted to the rate (STS-1, AU-3, or AU-4) signal level for
the paths that are not defined in the test case. In the situation where
the traffic pattern is replaced by GFP the background traffic remains
the same for the STS-1/AU-3/AU-4 that are not involved in the test case
data path. In the situation where contiguous concatenation or virtual
concatenation is used, the background traffic continues to be applied
on the remaining timeslots not involved in the test case data path.
