Communication System via Land Signal Transmission System

Nowadays, CAT has the land optical fiber signal transmission network for connecting domestic signal transmission networks and for data transmission service stations/internet.  The entire distance is approximately 32,000 kilometers covering both the central area and the provincial areas throughout the country, including district areas and some sub-district areas.  Moreover, it connects our neighboring countries: Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia, and Malaysia for serving the AEC.

With the Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing – DWDM technology, which can now transmit signal with the speed of over 100 Gbbs, and the ASON technology, which can cope with the multi-failure occurred to the implements and the cables, they will enable the land optical fiber   signal transmission network to serve the DWDM work.  They also have high reliability and can provide various classes of services to meet with the requirements of different customers. Besides, the Next Generation Synchronous Digital Hierarchy – SDH technology which is used to provide the DWDM Leased Circuit; and the Ethernet Circuit, are capable of providing services to the high band width with high stability and efficiency.  Now, the DWDM system is the main basic system for providing different CAT services, to include the telephone service, the MY mobile telephone service, the data transmission service, and the internet service.
