Specification Description
Connectors SC transmit and receive connectors
Host Slot Full-size PCI bus master slot
Description
===========
The ATMworks 350 adapter is a high-performance full-duplex ATM adapter,
allowing connectivity for peripheral component interconnect (PCI) local
bus-compatible systems by providing an end-station interface between the PCI
and an ATM User-Network Interface (UNI) compliant network. The ATMworks 350
adapter is a full-size PCI 32-bit module that occupies a full-length PCI
option slot, which must be master enabled to act as a bus master on the PCI
bus. Multimode fiber optics (SC connectors) connect the adapter to the ATM
network.
Features
========

connection-oriented traffic
Provides full-duplex operation and implements FLOWmaster flow
control
Supports 2048 virtual channels to receive and 2048 channels to
transmit
Supports CBR (constant bit rate) and UBR (unspecified bit rate)
quality of service
Uses packet-based interface to host, eliminating host processing
of cells
Delivers high-performance, full-speed, 32-bit DMA transfers at
132 Mbps
