Digital Access and Cross-Connect System that provides electronic DS3/STS-1 or DS1/VT1.5
cross-connect capability, eliminating the need for manual DSXs.
DCC - Data Communications Channel

communications and maintenance. It carries alarm, control, and status information between
network elements in a SONET network.
DCE - Data Communications Equipment
In a data station, the equipment that provides the signal conversion and coding between the data
terminal equipment (DTE) and the line. The DCE may be separate equipment or an integral part of
the DTE or of intermediate equipment. A DCE may perform other functions usually performed at
the network end of the line.
