Card Variants
There are 8 variants based on:
Primary rate interface (T1 or E1)
AAL type (AAL1 or AAL1/AAL5)
System backplane bandwidth
(4 Mb/s or 16 Mb/s)
EMC compliance
ATM Service Adaptation
AAL1 and AAL5
Selectable on a DS0 basis for
channelized user-side interfaces
(e.g., T1/E1)
AAL1 Adaptation and CES
AAL1 or AAL1/AAL5
Adapts CBR data and associated
signaling (n*64 kb/s) to AAL1
VCs over an ATM network, in
accordance with AF-SAA-
0032.000 and GR-1113- CORE
•DS0s
¬ Supports up to 84 for T1
interfaces
¬ Supports up to 104 for E1
interfaces
¬ Multiple DS0 CESs can be
transmitted over the same VC
¬ Voice (LGS) and data (V.35)
DS0s with a common desti -
nation can be transmitted
together
Configurable signaling multi -
frame size: 16 or 24 frames
Supports voice signaling with
robbed-bit signaling and channel
associated signaling
Received cell delay variation
tolerance is user defined per VC
Transmit cell level is user defined
per VC from n to 47, in one byte
increments, where n is the number
of DS0s in the VC
AAL5 Adaptation and
HDLC Services
AAL1/AAL5
Transports HDLC-formatted
traffic over an ATM network
Transparently adapts streams
of HDLC frames into AAL5 VCs
Interworks and adapts streams
of frame relay HDLC frames into
AAL5 VCs
Supports up to 3,968 Kb/s of
HDLC-formatted traffic
Interworking Mode
Supports service interworking
mode (translates frame relay into
ATM, for transmission across an
ATM network to ATM devices)
Supports network interworking
mode (transports frame relay
across an ATM network to
another frame relay network)
Compliant with FRF.5 and FRF.8
using AAL5 and non real-time
variable bit rate (nrt-VBR) or
