In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. the contract, DSC (1) (Digital Signal Controller) A microcontroller and DSP combined on the same chip. It adds the interrupt-driven capabilities normally associated with a microcontroller to a DSP, which typically functions as a continuous process. See microcontroller and DSP. will provide Moldtelecom with its DSC FOCUS AC1 (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (communications, standard) Synchronous Digital Hierarchy - (SDH) An international digital telecommunications network hierarchy which standardises transmission around the bit rate of 51.84 megabits per second, which is also called STS-1. [SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) The European counterpart to SONET. See SONET. SDH - Synchronous Digital Hierarchy ] transmission equipment designed specifically to serve STM-1 and STM-4), DSC FOCUS AC4 add-drop and terminal multiplexers, fiber optic cables Noun 1. fiber optic cable - a cable made of optical fibers that can transmit large amounts of information at the speed of light fibre optic cable transmission line, cable, line - a conductor for transmitting electrical or optical signals or electric power , and the DSC FOCUS NM500, a powerful multi-technology network management system. These advanced elements will be used to create the new ring network in the Moldovian capital of Chisnau. Installation of the DSC FOCUS AC1 STM-1 equipment is expected to be completed this autumn with an upgrade to STM-4 scheduled to take place during 1997. Lidia Madan, project manager for Moldtelecom, said: "The installation of this ring network builds on the success of the South North Link telecommunications project and provides a firm base to expand our delivery of advanced services, such as high quality telephony, TV transmission and multimedia, to our customers throughout the country." Doug Jacobs, vice president, international sales, DSC Communications Corporation, said: "This contract award underlines DSC's significant lead in the supply of SDH network equipment and advanced telecommunications management systems. "Based on our expertise and success in the marketplace, we can confidently supply the solutions needed by global operators as they continue to develop and expand their networks and service offerings." DSC's first success in Moldova was in 1995 with the award of a contract by GN Great Northern Telegraph Company and Moldtelecom to supply a new national network, known as South North Link. Under the terms of that contract, DSC supplied cables, transmission equipment and network management systems. DSC Communications Corporation is a leading designer, developer, manufacturer and marketer of digital switching, transmission, access and private network system products for the worldwide telecommunications marketplace. -0- NOTE TO EDITORS: Moldova has a population of approximately 4.4 million people and is situated between Romania and Ukraine in the southeastern corner of Europe. The country gained independence when the former Soviet Union was dissolved. -0- The current policy of the Moldtelecom is to rapidly digitize the existing telecommunications network A telecommunications network is a of telecommunications links and nodes arranged so that messages may be passed from one part of the network to another over multiple links and through various nodes. , and a program to build new highways based on optical fiber is being carried out. At the same time, Moldtelecom has the ability to provide new kinds of services based on advanced technologies such as ISDN ISDN in full Integrated Services Digital Network Digital telecommunications network that operates over standard copper telephone wires or other media. and SDH transmission.
