FEATURES
• Supports eight structured/unstructured T1, E1 links or one unstructured DS3, E3 or STS-1/STM-0 link over an AAL1 CBR ATM network.
• Compliant with ATM Forums CES (AFVTOA-0078), and ITU-T I.363.1.
• Supports up to 256 VCs.
• Supports n x 64 (consecutive channels) and m x 64 (nonconsecutive channels) structured data format with channel associated signaling (CAS) support.
• Internal E1/T1 clock synthesizers provided for each line which can be controlled via internal synchronous residual time stamp (SRTS) or an internal programmable weighted moving average adaptive clocking algorithm in unstructured mode. Clock synthesizers can also be controlled externally to provide customization of SRTS or adaptive clocking methods.
• Provides transparent transmission of CCS and CAS and termination of CAS signaling.
• Compliant with ATM Forums Dynamic Bandwidth Circuit Emulation Service (DBCES) AF-VTOA-0085. Supports idle channel detection via processor intervention, CAS signaling, or data pattern detection. Provides idle channel indication on a per channel basis.
• Supports AAL0 mode, selectable on a per VC basis.
• Provides transmit and receive buffers which can be used for OAM cells as well as any other user-generated cells such as AAL5 cells for ATM signaling.
LINE INTERFACE
• Supports the following flexible line interfaces:
• Eight individual T1 or E1 lines.
• Two H-MVIP lines at 8 MHz.
• One unstructured DS3, E3 or STS- 1/STM-0 line.
• Provides lineside loopback support on a per channel basis.
UTOPIA INTERFACE
• Supports 52 MHz, 8/16-bit Level 2, Multi-Phy Mode (MPHY) with parity, 8/16-bit Level 1, SPHY and 8-bit Level 1, ATM Master modes.
• Provides an optional 8/16-bit AnyPHY™ slave interface.
• Provides a three cell FIFO for UTOPIA loopback support on a per VC basis or a global basis.
APPLICATIONS
