As a leader in convergence solutions, Alcatel-Lucent expands its rich portfolio with a cost-optimized Compact
Media Adapter (CMA) for targeted applications. The DS1/E1 Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) Inverse
Multiplexing over ATM (IMA) CMA is purpose-built to enable mobile cell-site backhauls and corporate branch
offices to integrate data into a traditional Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) infrastructure.
