AAL1gator™-4
Preliminary
4 Link CES/DBCES AAL1 SAR
(DBCES) AF-VTOA-0085. Supports
idle channel detection via processor
intervention, CAS signaling, or data
pattern detection. Provides idle
channel indication on a per channel
basis.
• Supports AAL0 mode, selectable on a
per VC basis.
• Provides transmit and receive buffers
which can be used for OAM cells as
well as any other user-generated cells
such as AAL5 cells for ATM signaling.
• Provides an optional 8/16-bit Any-
PHY™ slave interface.
• Provides a three cell FIFO for UTOPIA
loopback support on a per VC basis or
a global basis.
FEATURES
• Supports four structured/unstructured
T1 or E1 links, or one unstructured
DS3, E3 or STS-1/STM-0 link over an
AAL1 CBR ATM network.
• Compliant with ATM Forum's CES (AF-
VTOA-0078), and ITU-T I.363.1.
• Supports up to 128 VCs.
• Supports n x 64 (consecutive
channels) and m x 64 (non-
consecutive channels) structured data
format with channel associated
signaling (CAS) support.
• Internal E1/T1 clock synthesizers
provided for each line which can be
controlled via internal synchronous
residual time stamp (SRTS) or an
internal programmable weighted
moving average adaptive clocking
algorithm in unstructured mode. Clock
synthesizers can also be controlled
externally to provide customization of
SRTS or adaptive clocking methods.
• Provides transparent transmission of
CCS and CAS and termination of CAS
signaling.
TRANSMIT SECTION
• Provides individually enabled per-VC
data and signaling conditioning in the
transmit cell direction and per DS0
data and signaling conditioning in the
transmit line direction.
• Provides per-VC configuration of time
slots allocated, CAS support, partial
cell size, data and signaling
conditioning, ATM Cell header
definition.
• Generates AAL1 sequence numbers,
pointers and SRTS values in
accordance with ITU-T I.363.1.
Multicast connections are supported.
• Provides a patented frame based
calendar queue service algorithm with
anti-clumping add-queue mechanism
that produces minimal CDV. In
unstructured mode uses non-frame
based scheduling to optimize CDV.
LINE INTERFACE
• Supports the following flexible line
interfaces:
•
•
•
Four individual T1 or E1 lines.
One H-MVIP line at 8 MHz.
One unstructured DS3, E3 or STS-
1/STM-0 line.
• Provides lineside loopback support on
a per channel basis.
UTOPIA INTERFACE
• Supports 52 MHz, 8/16-bit Level 2,
Multi-Phy Mode (MPHY) with parity, 8/
16-bit Level 1, SPHY and 8-bit Level 1,
ATM Master modes.
• Compliant with ATM Forum's Dynamic
Bandwidth Circuit Emulation Service
