What is the Centillion 1200N Switch?

 

 

 

 

Accommodates various ATM lines

The ATM Switch can interface various ATM lines by accommodating both optical lines and metallic lines, different throughputs, and different protocols. Because the ATM Switch is equipped with interfaces for various ATM lines, it can be used for a wide range of multimedia applications depending on the need.

Structure of the ATM Switch

With its compact dimensions, the ATM Switch can be placed on a desktop or on a standard 19-inch rack. To facilitate on-site maintenance after the operation begins, the ATM Switch is designed to allow service access from the front of each unit.

Supports various connection functions

As the ATM Switch supports both fixed connections (PVCs) and switch connections (SVCs), it provides various connection formats.

Connections may be set to one of five levels of control priority

Total management of network

Because the ATM Switch is equipped with a network management agent function based on SNMP, it can be managed along with such LAN products as routers and hubs.

Traffic control

When competition occurs in sending out cells, this traffic control function prevents the cell with a higher priority from being delayed or discarded.

Each connection may be set to one of five levels of control priority.

Supports PNNI Ver.1.0

The ATM Switch is the world's first ATM switch to support PNNI Ver.1.0 that conforms to the ATM Forum. This ensures that network construction is made simple.

Provides server function

By installing a server card (option) in the line card slot, the ATM Switch can be used as a LAN emulation server or an ARP server.

Total management of network

As the ATM Switch is equipped with a network management agent function based on SNMP, it can be managed along with such LAN products as routers and hubs.

Interworking with other types of networks

Interworking between ATM network and other types of networks can be realized by installing an interworking line card (Frame Relay card FR-DS1) and a Circuit Emulation card (CE-DS1) in the ATM Switch.
