Abstract :
For the transmit quality and convenience of the storage area network (SAN) or local area network (LAN) in the wide area network (WAN), we designed a generic frame mapping (GFM) device to carry the SAN or LAN data onto the SDH/SONET network. The SAN devices which contain the fiber channel or the gigabit Ethernet interface can connect with our GFM device easily. This work presents the function and architecture of each unit in our GFM device.
