This paper analyses availability of the ring network which uses the path protection switching (sub-network connection protection - SNCP). Influence of the common path on the ring network availability is analyzed. Data regarding failures of optical fibre cables and equipment used for calculations have been obtained during years-long observation of SDH network in HT Mostar as well as from manufacturers.
