If your LAN is reaching the limit of its bandwidth capacity, then transition
your legacy, shared-media traffic, to a switched 10 Mbps network. Then, by
introducing ATM functionality to connect that same traffic to a server or
backbone (up to theoretically 155 Mbps in this case), bottlenecks will be
mitigated.
This value-effective approach enables you to only "upgrade" devices that
actually need the increased bandwidth (like the server).
Finally, ATI's ATM switches are the first phase to meet both current and
future needs of your expanding networks. These services will enhance the
business environment for years to come.
