Summary
History of ATM
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is cell relay
protocol
Designed by ATM Forum and adopted by the
ITU-T and B-ISDN
Allow high-speed interconnection of all the
world’s networks
ATM can be thought of as the “highway” of the
information superhighway
ITU-T : International Telecommunations Union-Telecommunation Standardization
Sector
B-ISDN: Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network
ATM Technology
One International Standard
Both LAN and WAN Technology

ATM Basic Concepts
Negotiated Service
Connection
 End-to-end connections, called virtual
circuits
 Traffic contract
Switched Based
 Dedicated capacity
Cell Based
 Small, fixed length
