Title :
OC-12/STS-3c/ATM interface for gigabit network applications
Abstract :
The implementation of an experimental OC-12/STS-3c/ATM transmission interface is described. This interface maps four streams of ATM cell data into the SONET STS-3c transmission format and multiplexes these channels onto a single OC-12 (622 Mbit/s) optical signal. The interface also performs the reverse demultiplexing functions. This application represents the first known demonstration of a 622 Mbit/s ATM workstation interface.
