ASYNCHRONOUS TRANSFER MODE (ATM) CONVERSION DEVICE (ACD)

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 27-30, 1997 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / The Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) Conversion Device (ACD) System is based on
state-of-the-art ATM technology. The system interfaces between high-rate ECL/RS-422
raw data bitstreams and Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) OC-3 fiber. The SONET
OC-3 interface uses ATM Adaptation Layer Type Five (AAL5) format.
The system exceeds its 50 Mbps raw data, single stream requirement and provides single
stream raw data throughput at rates up to 75 Mbps. With ATM and SONET packaging
overhead, this translates into 90 Mbps on the OC-3 fiber.
In addition to high-rate throughput, the system provides multiplexing and demultiplexing of
multiple stream throughput based on the ATM cell header Virtual Path and Virtual
Channel Identifier (VPI/VCI) values. The system is designed with the flexibility to provide
between three and six throughput channels. All of which are multiplexed/demultiplexed to
and from the same OC-3 interface. Multiple stream cumulative raw data throughput rates
of up to 80 Mbps, or 96 Mbps on the fiber, have successfully run.
