Severely errored seconds
threshold crossing alert for
line layer.

The incoming signal line has
an error rate of 1.6E-5 or
worse for a period of time less
than ten seconds. An SES can
also be caused by a physical
failure such as LOS for less
than ten seconds. Examine the
physical circuit to determine

if

there are any impairments.

Severely errored seconds
threshold crossing alert for
section layer. Excessive
one second intervals in the
transmission from the far
end NE have had ES In the
section layer over and
above the ES threshold
level causing a Severely

alert.

The incoming signal section
has an error rate of 1.6E-5 or
worse for a period of time less
than ten seconds. An SES can
also be caused by a physical
failure such as LOS for less
