<p>SDH has a byte set aside for a 64Kbps voice channel in the header (byte E2) with the title MS orderwire byte. </p>
<p>Why? What is this for?</p>

<p>I've seen references to HO and LO optical links. This apparently means High Order and Low Order, but that isn't a lot of help. I've seen references to eigenvalues on Wikipedia, but that wasn't clear either.</p>
<p>What makes an LO link? Conversely what makes a HO link and why do we need to differentiate?</p>
