IR-ETH/QH Interface Module

B.1 Introduction

The IR-ETH/QH interface module includes a high performance self-learning Fast Ethernet bridge, which is connected to the LAN via a single 10BaseT or 100BaseT port, operating in full duplex and providing offer simple and cost-effective interconnection between 10/100BaseT LANs via VDSL links. The IR-ETH/QH interface module also supports IEEE 802.1/Q frames, enabling VLAN applications.

The module automatically learns MAC addresses of the LAN to which it is connected. Its LAN table stores up to 1,000 addresses with 5-minute automatic aging.

Filtering and forwarding is performed at the maximum theoretical rate of

150,000 packets per second (wire speed). The buffer with 1 Mb DRAM can hold 170 frames with a throughput latency of one frame. The forwarding of the broadcast and multicast messages from LAN to WAN can be disabled.

Figure B-1shows a typical application using ASM-60 with IR-ETH/QH module.
