VoATM

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

VoATM (Voice over Asynchronous Transfer Mode) is a service used to transport packetized voice signals over an ATM network.[1] The voice traffic is encapsulated using AAL1/AAL2 ATM packets, when sending voice traffic over ATM.[2] VoATM over DSL is a similar service, which is used to carry packetized voice signals over a DSL connection.[1]

Protocols [edit]

Deployment [edit]

VoATM is a multi-service, high speed, scalable technology but rarely found because of its expensive services.[3]

Prioritization [edit]

Prioritization is implemented through QoS parameters.[3]

Fragmentation [edit]

Fragmentation is built into ATM with its small, fixed-sized, 53-byte cells.[3][4]

Variable Delay [edit]

Dynamic Bandwidth Circuit Emulation Service (DBCES) does not send a constant bit stream of cells but transmit only at an active voice call, reducing delays and variations.[3]

Echo Cancellation [edit]

VoATM transports data, voice, and video at very high speed. The same method for echo cancellation is employed.[3]
