The FRSM-12-T3E3 is a high-density, double-height service module that enables Frame Relay
communications over an ATM network. It provides 12 ports of unchannelized T3 Frame Relay with 622
Mbps of ATM throughput.
Note As of MGX Release 4, T3 support is operational and E3 is planned for a future release.
The FRSM-12-T3E3 typically connects to a Frame Relay router. Communications through the ATM
network are accomplished by means of SPVCs set up between the originating device and a remote
destination device.
When the FRSM-12-T3E3 is combined with a back card, a card set is created. Table 2-16 provides
information about the FRSM-12-T3E3, interface, and corresponding back card.
Note For technical specifications for the FRSM12s, see the “Double-Height Service Module Specifications”
section on page A-2.
