What kinds of applications does the PA-A6 ATM port adapter target support?
The PA-A6 ATM port adapter targets support for broadband aggregation applications on the Cisco 7200 series routers and Cisco 7401ASR router, where xDSL aggregation installations require large support for high numbers of VCs per interface. The PA-A6 ATM port adapter supports 8K connections (subscribers) per interface for features like Point-to-Point Protocol over ATM (PPPoA), Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet over ATM (PPPoEoA), and routed bridge encapsulation (RBE). The PA-A6 ATM port adapter also supports WAN aggregation and campus/MAN networks that require high performance and can support greater than 4K VCs per interface.
