SONET (Synchronous Optical Network) is a physical layer network technology designed to carry large volumes of traffic over relatively long distances on fiber optic cabling.
SONET uses an inverse multiplexing technique called virtual concatenation. SONET, which is the standard used in the United States and most of Europe, stands for Synchronous Optical Network.
Because SONET/SDH uses "synchronous TDM multiplexer" to multiplexe signals from multiple electrical sources . All clocks in the system are locked to a master clock.
Optical networking hardware entails the various components used in optical technologies. Some of the common hardware include routers, optical fiber, electronic devices and so much more.
Fiber optic cables
Physical Layer, SONET is the other name used for it
SONET (Synchronous Optical Networking) is used for high-speed telecommunications networks to provide reliable and efficient data transmission over fiber optic cables. It offers synchronous data transmission, enabling multiple data streams to be multiplexed and transmitted over a single optical fiber. SONET is commonly used in backbone networks to support high-bandwidth applications such as video streaming, internet connectivity, and phone services.
Synchronous Optical Networks (SONET) have various optical networks. An OC-3 circuit is one of these. The answer is yes, since OC-3 is a product of the SONET architecture.

It is an acronym for 'Synchronous Optical Network'. I can find no other meaning for it. There is a word sonnet which is a type of poem.
The SONET (Synchronous Optical Networking) rate of an OC-12 line is 622 megabits per second (Mbps). This rate is derived from the base rate of OC-1, which is 51.84 Mbps, multiplied by 12. OC-12 is commonly used in telecommunications for high-capacity data transmission.

Yes, Ethernet can be transported over SONET (Synchronous Optical Network) using a method called "Ethernet over SONET" (EoS). This technique encapsulates Ethernet frames within SONET frames, allowing Ethernet data to be transmitted over SONET links while taking advantage of SONET's high-speed, reliable transmission capabilities. EoS facilitates the integration of Ethernet services into existing SONET networks, enabling service providers to offer Ethernet services over long distances.
OC (Optical Carrier) level.
OC-n / OC-xxx indicates Optical Carrier signals which are carried over a SONET (Synchronous Optical Network) fiber optical network. The numbers after OC indicate various levels or data rates in the SONET hierarchy. Hierarchy goes like OC-1, OC3, OC-12, OC-24, OC-48, OC-96, OC-192 and OC-768 OC-1 is a SONET line with transmission speeds of 51.84 Mbit/s. OC-192 has a speed of 9953.28 Mbit/s (almost 10Gbps, so also called SONET 10G). You can get more details in SONET literature. - Neeraj Sharma
