ABSTRACT:
An SDH multiplex transmission system has a transmission terminal apparatus and a reception terminal apparatus that are connected to each other through channels of an N+1 redundant structure. The transmission terminal apparatus loads predetermined information that violates SDH standards into the overhead of an STM frame and transmits the same to a spare channel that is not currently used. The reception terminal apparatus monitors an STM frame received through the spare channel, and when the predetermined information in the overhead thereof satisfies a predetermined violation detection condition, determines that the spare channel is unused. The violation information is byte information such as H1, MS-REI, or STM-ID. As a result, the SDH multiplex transmission system has a simple structure to let the reception terminal apparatus correctly determine whether or not the spare channel is used.
