"Our new DS3/E3 ATM AMC WAN module is the latest in a line of field-hardened ATM networking products and is part of our comprehensive line of telecomms, datacomms, Ethernet, storage and enterprise I/O modules".
The Telum 1001-DE is a PICMG AMC.0 and AMC.1 module that complies with ATM Forum UNI 3.1 and TM 4.0 specifications and is based on an advanced ATM segmentation and reassembly (SAR) controller designed to optimise bus transfers.
The Telum 1001-DE supports one full-duplex ATM DS3/E3 port for protocol data unit sizes as small as two cells.
The traffic management coprocessor within the SAR supports constant bitrate (CBR) and variable bit ate (VBR) among other bitrates.
Users can assign parameters to the xBR traffic block to maximise line utilisation by automatically scheduling each virtual channel connection (VCC).
In accordance with AMC.0 specifications, an IPMI microcontroller subsystem initialises board-level parameters, monitors board voltage and temperature, maintains system status and hot-swap operations.
The channel and digital service unit (CSU/DSU) network management subsystem provides line alarm conditions and performance data monitoring statistics to help managers keep tabs on line performance.
The CSU/DSU functions run in an onboard microcontroller allowing Facilities Data Link functions to be performed in hardware rather than on the hosts system like other competing products.
SBS provides a portfolio of drivers which are based on a set of libraries, known as the Driver Development Kit (DDK).
The DDK architecture is common to all SBS WAN products and enables customers to use High-level drivers or low-level function calls for applications development.
The Telum 1001-DE product is provided with Carrier Grade Linux, VxWorks and Windows drivers as well as the comprehensive DDK.
Available now, the full-duplex Telum 1001-DE DS3/E3 ATM AMC module lists for US $1836.
