7.1  SLA Service 
1.  Classification of SLA Service 
The SLA service can be classified into multiple levels in terms of protection (high level 
service, medium level service, reroute service, unprotected service and extra service, 
and so on). Charges vary with the service levels and thus demands of different users 
can be satisfied flexibly. The principle for classifying services is as follows: 
 
High level service: Provided with 1+1 protection or alike, with the switch-ing time of 
0–50ms. 
 
Medium level service: Provided with M:N protection or alike (for example, two-fiber 
MSP), with the switching time of 0–50ms. 
 
Reroute service: Recalculate the path in real time, with the switching time from 
100ms to several seconds. 
 
Unprotected service: Provided with no protection in the case of any fault. 
 
Extra service: Pre-empted by services with higher priorities when the network 
resource is insufficient. 
2.  SLA-Based Protection at Different Service Levels 
With the SLA service provided, the OptiX OSN 7500 enables the operators to win 
more customers in a differentiated market with better service and lower cost.

Diamond level service is to meet demands of users such as banks, securities, 
important government offices, and so on. Gold level service is to satisfy the demands 
for speech, multimedia and video. Silver level service is applicable to common data 
service transmission. Services of copper and iron levels are suitable for applications 
such as family network access
