19.5 Introduction to ATM

ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) is a connection-oriented switching technology that uses
fixed-size cells to transmit data across a dedicated path (permanent virtual circuit (PVC)).
An ATM service contract is an agreement between the carrier and the subscriber to regulate the
average rate and fluctuations of data transmission over an ATM network. This agreement helps
eliminate congestion, which is important for transmission of real time data such as audio and
video connections.
