Description =========== The ATMworks 950L is a single-slot card that provides a high performance architecture using a custom Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) chip. This chip implements the ATM Adaptation Layer (AAL) 5 protocol to map PDUs into the information field of ATM cells and vice versa. The ATMworks 950Ls provides ATM network connectivity for a workstation or server. One of its functions is to perform the segmentation and reassembly of data for transmission on the ATM network. The ATMworks 950L segments outgoing data into cells and transmits them to an ATM switch for forwarding to their destination. The same ATMworks 950L reassembles received cells into a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) that can be processed by a protocol stack. Features ======== High performance 155.52 Mbps ATM connectivity AAL5 and raw ATM traffic support Integrated segmentation and reassembly (SAR) High performance convergence sublayer support Extensive variable bit rate (VBR) capabilities SONET/SDH (STS-3c/STM-1) physical layer support Fiber-optics and unshielded twisted-pair support Operation and Maintenance (OAM) cell support Variations DGLSL-FA, ATMworks 950L SBUS MMF DGLSL-UA, ATMworks 950L SBUS UTP _Top of Page_ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
