{{Short description|Metric for digital communication link}}
 
In [[telecommunications]] and [[data communication]] systems, an '''errored second''' is an interval of a [[second]] during which any error whatsoever has occurred, regardless of whether that error was a single bit error or a complete loss of communication for that entire second. The type of error is not important for the purpose of counting errored seconds.
 
Line 9 ⟶ 11:
More specialist and precise definitions of errored seconds exist in standards such as the [[Digital Signal 1|T1]] and [[Digital Signal 1|DS1]] transport systems.
