Model 3124 User Manual 1 • Introduction
After the DSL module aggregate 24/48 ports DSL traffic into the network processor card, the network proces-
sor terminates the ATM traffic into Ethernet packets through its SAR (Segmentation and Reassembly) func-
tion. The network processor also provides the Layer-2 Ethernet functions; it can support the mapping between
the ATM VCI and VLAN ID (802.1q) and priority queues (802.1p). The mapping functionality between
ATM PVC and VLAN ID include one PVC to one VLAN ID and multiple PVCs to one VLAN ID. And
these mappings can be configurable.

filter is field-installable and filed- replaceable.
Features:
Built-in 4 DC fans with error indicating signal for monitoring the status of fan module
The fan will be turned on when system temperature is higher than T°C and will be turned off when system
temperature is less than T-10°C (the temperature threshold T can be configured).
