switch
Any kind of telephone switching system. See also
switchhook
The buttons that are located on a telephone under the receiver.
switch node carrier
A carrier that contains a single switch node, power units, and, optionally, one or two DS1 converter circuit packs. A
switch node carrier is located in a center-stage switch (CSS). See also
switch node clock
The circuit pack in a switch node carrier that provides clock function, maintenance alarm function, and environmental
switch node carrier
monitors. See also
switch node interface (SNI)
A circuit pack that is the basic building block of a switch node. An SNI circuit pack controls the routing of circuit, packet,
and control messages.
switch node link (SNL)
The hardware that provides a bridge between two or more switch nodes. The SNL consists of the two SNI circuit packs
that reside on the switch nodes, and the hardware that connects the SNIs. This hardware can include lightwave
transceivers that convert the electrical signals of the SNI to light signals, the copper wire that connects the SNIs to the
lightwave transceivers, a full-duplex fiber-optic cable, DS1 converter circuit cards, and appropriate connectors. This
hardware can also include DS1 facilities if a company does not have rights to lay cable. See also

.
switch processing element (SPE)
The control complex that operates the system. In DEFINITY Servers, the SPE includes all control circuit packs. Other
configurations place some of the SPE functions in other components of the control network, such as servers and Ethernet
switches.
Switched Monitoring (SMON)
An extension of the Remote Monitoring (RMON) standard. Device SMON is an extension of RMON-I that provides
additional tools and features for monitoring in a local switch environment. AnyLayer SMON is an extension of RMON-II
that provides a global view of traffic flow in a network with multiple switches. SMON collects and displays data in real
time. SMON can provide a global view of the traffic for all switches on the network, an overall view of the traffic that
passes through a specific switch, detailed data about the hosts that transmit packets through a switch, an analysis of the
traffic that passes through each port that is connected through a switch, and a view of traffic between the various hosts
that are connected to a switch. See also
switched virtual connection (SVC)
A virtual link that is established through an Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) network. An SVC is the basic "building
block" of port network (PN) interconnectivity. Two SVCs, one in each direction, are required for a bi-directional talk path
between PNs in an ATM-PNC configuration. See also
SXS
Step-by-step
Synchronous Data-Link Control (SDLC)
A bit-oriented synchronous communications protocol. SDLC supports device communications that are usually conducted
over high-speed, dedicated private line, digital circuits. SDLC operates in either a point-to- point network configuration
or a multipoint network configuration.
