![]() MPLS was introduced at the beginning of the century and was positively received by many network operators. In the meantime, there are various packet-transmitting transport technologies available to replace the traditional SDH/SONET: MPLS, Carrier Ethernet and the more recent MPLS-TP (Multiprotocol Label Switching – Transport Profile). ![]() For example, the IEC 6 standard describes the application of IEC 61850, which extends a communication protocol for packet transmission within a substation to communication between substations. This is confirmed by the preparations taking place in the energy world for migration to packet-based data. ![]() Therefore, a future-proof network for energy suppliers must definitely be packet-based. Since SDH/SONET has been on the retreat, no new products of this technology are coming onto the market and deliveries are mainly limited to extensions of existing networks. ![]() In view of the dramatic increase in Internet data traffic, network operators began several years ago to replace their older SDH/SONET technology with packet-based technologies such as MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) or industrial Ethernet. ![]()
