SATURN USER NETWORK INTERFACE FOR 2488 MBIT/S
In a typical Packet over SONET application (i.e. using the PPP protocol) the S/UNI-2488
performs clock and data recovery in the receive direction and clock synthesis in the transmit
direction of the line interface. On the system side, the S/UNI-2488 interfaces directly with a data
link layer processor using a SATURN POS-PHY Level 3 32-bit (clocked up to 104 MHz)
synchronous FIFO interface over which packets are transferred. The initial configuration and
ongoing control and monitoring of the S/UNI-2488 are normally provided via a generic
microprocessor interface.
