A DDM-2000 OC-3 Multiplexer VT1.5/STS-1 path switched ring is a very effective
self-healing network topology for small cross-section interoffice networks such as
outstate trunks. Low-density routes that primarily transport DS1 traffic are ideally
suited to the DDM-2000 OC-3 Multiplexer path switched ring. DS3s/EC-1s may
also be carried between offices on DDM-2000 OC-3 Multiplexers (Figure 2-3).
