ATM SWITCH MATRIX
ATM Switching: RCH

Use of the ATM technique for narrow-band

switching (Composite ATM)
Compatibility ensured with existing technology
Defense: duplication mechanisms as for RCX
Same interfaces with SMT, CSNL, SMA
Compactness
Huge reduction of boards and racks
Reduced Power consumption
VIETNAM

ATM Switching: RCH

Principle
Since the Alcatel 1000 E10s ATM matrix is a cell switching

device, 64 Kbit/s channels to/from ATM cell adaptation is
performed
Time Slot mapping into cell

ATM Switching: RCH

Composite ATM (TCA 1/2)
Converting voice circuits into/from ATM cells must be delay free

All Time slots bound to the same destination are loaded in the same ATM

One or several VC (depending on traffic load) lead to that destination (the

VCs to cross the ASE are established dynamically)
Cell delivery time is mastered by the CBR AAL1 service category
VIETNAM

ATM Switching: RCH

Composite ATM (TCA 2/2)
To line up with the switch internal connectivity, the RCH also uses the
LR as input/output link format:
8 bits speech or data information
Supplementary check bits to provide per channel protection through
the RCH.
