Adaptec® ATM155(tm) for PCI Standards-based 155 Mb/s ATM network interface cards for PCI systems PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS * Full-duplex 155 Mb/s connection to ATM network for PCI workstations * Classical IP over ATM and LAN Emulation for transparent integration with existing LANs * Up to 1,024 virtual circuits sup-ported with either SVCs or PVCs * Manageable through SNMP and ATM Forum ILMI * Ideal for either workstations or workgroup server applications * Network operating system drivers for Windows NT(tm), NetWare and OS/2 OVERVIEW With the Adaptec ATM155 family of Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) network interface cards (NICs), users can take full advantage of powerful, business-critical applications. The Adaptec ATM155 NICs eliminate network bottlenecks, increase data rates, and enable full-duplex transmission for two-way simultaneous data movement. The Adaptec ATM155 NICs integrate seam-lessly with traditional local area networks because they are interoperable with major vendors' ATM switches, routers, concentrators, and edge devices, required to merge existing LANs with ATM. KEY BENEFITS ATM performance for PCI systems Adaptec ATM155 NICs are single-slot PCI adapters with high-performance, high-efficiency, standards-based custom-silicon architectures that implement the ATM Adaptation Layer (AAL) 5 protocol. AAL5 cells are reassem-bled on-board into frames, and non-AAL5 cells are passed through into host memory. Adaptec ATM155 NICs deliver 155 Mb/s of full-duplex data stream capacity with up to 1,024 virtual channel identifiers (VCIs). These NICs are available for either multimode fiber (MMF) or Category 5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP 5) media. Standards-based interoperability The Adaptec ATM155 NICs support both permanent virtual circuits (PVCs) and switched virtual circuits (SVCs) with signaling software conforming to ATM Forum UNI 3.0 and UNI 3.1 standards. All Adaptec ATM adapters are certified in Adaptec's Interoperability Lab for operation with ATM Forum-compliant ATM switches, routers, concentrators, and edge devices from major vendors. This interoperability allows users to choose ATM solutions that preserve their LAN network infrastructure and migrate to ATM networks at their own pace. Also, because Adaptec ATM155 NICs support Classical IP over ATM (RFC-1577) and conform to ATM Forum standards for LAN Emulation, users do not have to depend on a single vendor for proprietary ATM solutions. A rowth path for the future Adaptec is committed to supplying the most technologically advanced solutions available. The Adaptec ATM155 NICs now include complete ATM software for Windows NT, with DOS, Windows®, OS/2 and NetWare available soon. As new products and technologies emerge, Adaptec updates software drivers to meet user needs. The Adaptec family of ATM adapters The Adaptec ATM155 and Adaptec ATM25 families of network interface cards currently support PCI, SBus and Micro Channel bus hardware platforms, plus Solaris 2.3 and 2.4 and Windows NT software environments. Support will also be added for the NetWare, DOS/Windows, and OS/2 operating systems. Please check with Adaptec suppliers, Adaptec's Interactive Fax or the World Wide Web server for the latest information on environments supported. Adaptec IOware® Adaptec IOware solutions eliminate performance bottlenecks between microcomputers, peripherals, and networks. Solutions range from simple connectivity products for single-user and small-office desktops to intelligent subsystem, high-performance SCSI, RAID, and ATM products for enterprise-wide computing and networked environments.
