•  Ethernet network interface supports interfacing with Ethernet network. The 
Ethernet interface is based on a multiport Fast Ethernet bridge with quality of 
service support. The ports of the Fast Ethernet bridge perform the following 
functions: 
 
Data transmission over SDH/SONET link 
 
Management from the local terminal 
 
Interconnection between bridge and CPU 
 
MAC MII configuration. 
•  CPLD is a high performance lattice programming device responsible for: 
 
Interfacing between MII port of the Fast Ethernet bridge and Level 2 POS 
interface of the SDH/SONET framer 
 
Providing MUX functions of SNI CPU interface 
 
Providing parallel CPU interface 
 
Managing front panel LEDs.
