The project MUSA was carried out
within the framework of the contract arranged with Portugal
Telecom (1994-1996). The equipment developed consisted of
the ATM Multiplexer (ATM interfaces of 2 Mbit/s and 34 Mbit/s)
and interfaces for CBR circuit (2 Mbit/s) emulation. The unit
can include up to 14 cards. The 34-Mbit/s boards have 1 port,
the 2-Mbit/s ATM cards have 2 ports and the CBR board have
4 ports. The 400Mbit/s commutations are implemented at the
bus level. Some units have been already developed and provided
to PT.
