Terminal options that perform an asynchronous multiplex function. Examples of Category I transport NE interfaces are low-speed interfaces to ADMs, digital radio terminals, fiber-optic terminals (excluding terminals that function solely as digital repeaters or regenerators), and low-speed interfaces to DACSs.
Equipment interfaces whose behavior with respect to timing jitter is governed exclusively by input timing recovery circuitry. Examples of Category II transport NE interfaces are digital terminals at a DLC system, repeaters for metallic cables, regenerators for fiber-optic cables, and high-speed interfaces to DACSs. STS-N and OC-N interfaces to a SONET NE are also considered Category II.
