摘要:A line card for supporting both circuit switching and packet switching is provided. The line card interfaces asynchronous communications and synchronous communications using a ATM switch and a Synchronous to Asynchronous Converter - Time Slot Interchange (SAC-TSI) that allows TDM traffic to be routed into the ATM fabr ic of the ATM switch. The line card supports video, voice and data communications. The line card further supports ATM, ethernet and frame relay communications.
