ATM has long proclaimed to be the solution to isochronous networks. This is due to cell-based switching which uses a fixed packet size. Theoretically, this should allow for predictable and fixed latency throughout the network. Unfortunately, ATM protocol implementations from one manufacturer may not provide for interoperability with another.Additionally, bridging of Ethernet packets to ATM may cause problems. However, QSC has successfully implemented RAVE on a few ATM networks. Note that RAVE products are supported by QSC Audio Products for use with Fast Ethernet repeaters, switches and approved media converters only.
