About the Avaya M770 ATM Switch
The M770 ATM switch is a high-performance distributed Asynchronous Transfer
Mode (ATM) switch that is designed for building and campus backbone
applications, high-performance centralized servers, and power-user environments.
Its advanced architecture can support very high traffic loads with no data loss or
breaks in communication. The M770 ATM Switch also implements LAN Emulation
(LANE) components. LANE enables legacy LAN applications to use a transparent
ATM transport medium. In this way, end-stations on existing LANs can
communicate with ATM end-stations.
The M770 ATM Switch supports a range of option modules that enable you to
customize the switch to fulfil applications that are appropriate to your networking
requirements. It is designed as a software-upgradeable product. Therefore, you can
expand the functionality of the switch by downloading new software.
