Connection E is a local connection (D AXCON) between a UFM and a UXM-E UNI port on the same node. For connections C–E, the gate way function of the UXM-E packs and unpacks the FastP ackets into and out of the A TM cells. Figure 4-2 UXM[...]

Trunk Cards 4-7 Universal Switching Module Enhanced • The maximum throughput is 310 Mbps—two times the OC-3 (STM1) rate. This maximum applies whether the back card is a 2-port or 4-port back card. In practical application, this maximum rate means that most trunk applications with an OC-3 interface would use the 2-port back card. • The UXM-E s[...]
