Page 19: Ati's Solution
AT-4016F Installation Manual ATI’s Solution In the past, a legacy Ethernet-to-Ethernet switch partially resolved fundamental bandwidth congestion problems by assigning each node to a unique segment. That was yesterday. Unfortunately, legacy Ethernet-to-Ethernet switching is not a total solution to bandwidth congestion when it originates from the backbone or if you (and others at the same time) access a server or data base which is outside your local network. - Page 20 Overview Figure 3 shows the front panel of an AT-4016F/ST. Figure 3: AT-4016F/ST Front Panel Figure 4 shows the Ethernet-to-ATM modular media interface which is located on the back panel. Both the AT-4016F/SC and the AT-4016/ST have identical back panels.

Page 47: Glossary
Appendix A Glossary 10BASE-T—IEEE 802.3 UTP Ethernet. Low-cost Level 3 or better UTP wiring affords 100 meters (328 ft.) of point-to-point link segments. UTP uses RJ-45 connectors and sometimes 50-pin AMP connectors to a patch panel and runs at 10 MHz. ADDRESS RESOLUTION PROTOCOL (ARP)—The procedures and messages in any communications protocol which resolve local addresses to those of the network. - Page 48 Glossary CARRIER SENSE MULTIPLE ACCESS with COLLISION DETECT (CSMA/CD)—This is the access method employed by IEEE 802.3 LAN transceivers, by which multiple stations compete for use of the transmission medium (coax cable) for data packet transmission. It provides for a level of error detection should that transmission be corrupted or impeded by contention for the transmission medium.
- Page 49 AT-4016F Installation Manual HUB/REPEATER—A hub is a central signal distributor. It is used in a wiring topology consisting of several point-to-point segments originating from a central point. The term hub is often used interchangeably with the term repeater. Multiport 10Base-T, 10Base2 and fiber optic (10Base-FL, FOIRL) repeaters are considered hubs.
- Page 50 Glossary MAU-to-MAU, HUB-to-HUB WIRING—10Base-T MAU-to-MAU or hub-to-hub wiring generally requires a crossover cable located somewhere along the UTP cable run. This may commonly occur at the punch-down block or between the RJ-45 wall receptacle and the workstation. MAU/TRANSCEIVER—An Ethernet transceiver is a MAU. A 10Base-T MAU interfaces the UTP media to an AUI port on a workstation, repeater, bridge or other Ethernet device.
- Page 51 AT-4016F Installation Manual PROPAGATION DELAY—The time it takes a signal to travel from the input of a system component to the output. Usually measured in nanoseconds. IEEE 802.3 has specific propagation delay maxima for computing propagation budgets when designing a LAN. Cable length plays a major role in propagation delay; for example, a 50-meter (164-foot) AUI cable has a maximum allowable propagation delay of 257 ns.
- Page 52 Glossary SWITCHED VIRTUAL CIRCUIT (SVC)—A virtual circuit (X.25), virtual connection (Frame Relay) or virtual channel connection (ATM) that has been established dynamically in response to a signaling request message. SWITCHED LAN—Emerging technology that replaces the shared bus backplane of Ethernet hubs and the shared ring backplane of token Ring hubs with a switching backplane.
