SC-type duplex fiber connector. Depending on fiber type and adapter model, the transmission lengths are 2, 15, or 40 km. The data rate of all models is 155.52 Mbps. They all support 16384 simultaneous connections. Adapter Model Type of fiber Maximum Length PROATM-V155F PCI 32-bit, 3.3/5V Multimode 2 km PROATM-V155FM PCI 32-bit, 3.3/5V...
Windows is provided with its source code as an example of ATM application on Windows. Fiber Connector and LED's The Duplex SC connector is adapted to 62.5/50 m multimode fiber (PROATM-V155F) or single mode fiber (PROATM-V155FM and PROATM-V155FLH).. Two LED's provide a status of the link and the driver activity: ...
2. Installing the Adapter on Windows 2000/XP The NDIS5 Miniport driver for Windows 2000/XP is fully compatible with the Microsoft NDIS5 specification. Installing the NDIS5 Miniport driver Please note that you must logon as system administrator to be able to install the driver, since it is not yet certified by Microsoft.
Check the TCP/IP Protocol box. Assigning the IP address to the computer: Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) on the ATM Connection Properties page and click Properties. In the TCP/IP Properties dialog box, click Use the following IP Address, and then enter the appropriate information in the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway fields.
3. Launch the proatmwdmsetup.exe setup utility. 4. The setup utility copies all PROATM-WDM files in the selected folder (by default: c:\program files\prosum\proatm-wdm ). 5. Then the setup utility proposes to go ahead with the driver installation. Do not uncheck Launch Driver Installation.
PROATM-WDM Driver You should see as many WDM drivers as PROATM adapters are installed into your computer. You can change the setup of each ATM adapter, but notice that most of time this is not recommended. Miniport Ethernet Driver The Miniport driver emulates NIC's that are seen as classical Ethernet adapters by Windows but connect to ATM networks via permanent virtual circuits (PVCs).
Linux distribution has been developed for a competitor card model and does not fully support the Prosum PROATM 155 Mbps cards. We don't discourage the use of this driver if it can fit your requirements, but of course we cannot provide technical support concerning its usage with our cards.
A PPPoE(oA) client or server can be implemented by using rp-pppoe or pppoe-server and starting them so that they use a nas interface previously setup with br2684ctl. # modprobe br2684 # br2684ctl -b -c 0 -e x -a vpi.vci # ifconfig nas0 up # pppoe-server –I /dev/nas0 –L ip –R ip …...
5. Installing the Adapter on FreeBSD The Prosum proatm driver for FreeBSD can be used with kernel versions 3.5, 3.51, and 4.1. It supports the the PROATM-155xx and the PROATM-V155xx models for the UBR, CBR and VBR QoS. It is compatible with the Host ATM Research Platform (HARP) software.
6. Testing the Adapter We recommend you carry out a test of the adapter after repairs and each time you suspect a problem. The PROATM diagnostic utility permits to verify the correct working of the adapter and its hardware compatibility with the computer. It does NOT permit to run a loop test. proatm.exe runs on DOS only.
7. Technical Support and Repair Calling for Assistance PROSUM has made every effort to ensure that the product you have purchased is free of defaults. All hardware and software parts have been tested individually and subjected to strict quality control procedures.
UNI 3.0, UNI 3.1 (ILMI included) LAN Emulation (LANE) v1.0 Classical IP (CIP - RFC 1577) multimode fiber, max 2 km. PROATM-V155F Multimode Fiber Port: Connector: Duplex SC Wavelength: 1310 nm Sensitivity: -29 dBm Output Power: -20 to -14 dBm Maximum power on input: -14 dBm single mode fiber, max 15 km.
Appendix: ATM Technology BASICS Cells ATM (Asynchronous Transmit Mode) is a switching data transmission technology based on fixed-length cells (5-byte header and 48-byte payload). Each cell contains information in its header, essential to routing the cell and ensuring that the cell reaches its destination. Header Payload Figure 4: ATM cell format...
intercalated between the high layers (TCP/IP, LAN Emulation, etc) and the physical layer, which manages the phenomena related to medium of transmission. The ATM layer deals with the commutation and the multiplexing of the cells. It delivers ATM cells to the physical layer for transport through the network.
LAN Emulation (LANE) developed by the ATM Forum MPOA developed by the ATM Forum Classical IP over ATM (RFC1577) Classical IP enables you to route IP packets over an ATM network. Each end station knows both its IP and ATM addresses and sends these addresses to an ATM address resolution protocol server (ATMARP).
LANE provides: The ability to find an ATM address corresponding to a given MAC address, Support of multicast and broadcast addresses. For doing that, LANE implements three servers: LAN Emulation Server (LES) that maps MAC addresses to ATM addresses. ...
ATM Glossary ASYNCHRONOUS TRANSFER MODE (ATM) A high-speed, connection-oriented, data transmission technology that transmits fixed-size cells rather than variable-length packets. ATM ADAPTATION LAYER The highest layer of the ATM model, which roughly corresponds to the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model.

A set of ATM Forum specifications that enables you to bridge LANs over an ATM backbone, creating a single virtual network or ELAN. The ATM Forum has defined LANE 1.0 and will finalize LANE 2.0 in March 1997. LAN EMULATION NETWORK-TO-NETWORK INTERFACE (LNNI) A LANE 2.0 standard that will define the interface between two LANE servers within the same virtual network, or ELAN.

A device that sets up a virtual circuit and forwards cells. Switches act like routers while setting up virtual circuits; that is, they determine the best path for the cells to take. Once the virtual circuit has been setup, they act as bridges, simply forwarding cells.
