Purpose

The Broadmore 1750 is an Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) service multiplexer that enables connection of existing and future services through an ATM network. The Broadmore allows users to implement tailored ATM strategies. This modular system has flexible configurations for service access, network interface, and redundancy.

The Broadmore functions as an ATM network service access node that supports the transport of existing broadband services (voice, video, and data) over ATM networks. Typically, it is deployed at the edge of an ATM network as the ATM node element closest to the customer. The Broadmore accepts signals from non-ATM-ready equipment, converts the signals to standard ATM cells, and multiplexes the cells onto a single ATM User Network Interface (UNI) port. The Broadmore accepts constant- bit-rate (CBR) services. Permanent Virtual Circuit (PVC) and Switched Virtual Circuit (SVC) services are available based upon the user-defined module configuration.

The Broadmore now includes FIPS 140-2 validated system management software that meets the security requirements of Federal Information Processing Standard PUB 140-2.
