FEATURES
IMA
• Supports up to 32 T1, E1, G.SHDSL or unchannelized links and up to 32 IMA groups with 1 to 32 links/group.
• Link and Group State Machines implemented on-chip requiring no real time software in the data path.
• Fully compliant with the ATM Forum Inverse Multiplexer for ATM (IMA) 1.1 specification and backward compatible to IMA 1.0.
• Supports both independent transmit clock (ITC) and common transmit clock (CTC) modes.
• Supports all IMA Group Symmetry modes: Symmetric/Asymmetric configuration and operation.
• Differential delay tolerance of 279 ms (for T1 links) and 226 ms (for E1 links).
• Performs IMA differential delay calculation and synchronization.
• Provides programmable limit on allowable differential delay and minimum number of links per group.
• Performs ICP and stuff-cell insertion and removal.
• Supports IMA frame length (M) equal to 32, 64, 128, or 256.
• Provides IMA layer statistic counts and alarms for support of IMA Performance and Failure Alarm Monitoring and MIB support.
• Provides per link counters for statistics and performance monitoring.

UNI
• Each link is software configurable as either a UNI or part of an IMA group.
• Performs receive cell Header Error Check (HEC) checking and transmit cell HEC generation.
• Optionally supports receive cell payload unscrambling and transmit cell payload scrambling.
• Provides TC layer statistics counts and alarms for MIB support.

ATM OVER FRACTIONAL T1/E1
• Supports ATM over Fractional T1/E1 compliant with the ATM Forum AF-PHY-0130.00 specification.

LINE INTERFACE
• 32 T1, E1, G.SHDSL or unchannelized links via 2-pin line interfaces.
• Supports a 19.44 MHz Scalable Bandwidth Interconnect (SBI) bus interface for seamless interconnect to the PM8315 TEMUX and PM8316 TEMUX-84.
• SBI supports two Synchronous Payload Envelopes (SPE). Each SPE can carry up to 16 T1s or 16 E1s.

UTOPIA / ANY-PHY INTERFACE
• Supports 8- and 16-bit UTOPIA L2 and Any-PHY cell interfaces at clock rates up to 52 MHz.
• Any-PHY transmit slave appears as a 32 port multi-PHY. The PHY-ID of each cell is identified using in-band addressing.
• Any-PHY receive slave appears as a single device. The PHY-ID of each cell is identified using in-band addressing.
• UTOPIA L2 transmit and receive slave appears as a 31-port multi-PHY.
• UTOPIA L2 receive slave can also appear as a single port with the logical port provided as a prepend.
