Introduction

1. Introduction

2. Unit objectives After completing this unit, you will be able to • identify the roles of a Passport 7400 and 15000 in a network • identify types of data cells and how they are used by Passport • identify strengths of frame-based and cell-based services • distinguish between the 7400 bus and the 15000 fabric card

6. Packets and frames compared to cells Data Partially filled data cell Larger header 1 large header < Many small headers

7. Backplane cell Header = 3 or 4 bytes 36 56 or 57 84 BTDS cells Payload = 36 to 84 bytes Backplane cell Backplane cell Padding Header = 5 bytes ATM cells Payload = 48 bytes Padding Backplane cell Passport cells Header = 3 bytes 1 byte CRC trailer Payload = 64 bytes 15000 backplane cells Header = 4 bytes 7400 backplane cells Payload = 60 bytes Header = 3 or 4 bytes Passport Voice Payload = 44 bytes Padding

8. Frames and cells Frames Payload ranges from 1 - 4096 bytes Frame is cut into 60-byte chunks to fit into the Backplane cells … Header contains reassembly information Padding to make up the 60-byte payload Backplane cells
