| Introduction: |
| |
A network technology based on transferring data in cells or packets of a fixed size. The small,
constant cell size allows ATM equipment to transmit video, audio, and computer data over the same network, and
assure that no single type of data hogs the line. ATM creates a fixed channel, or route, between two points whenever
data transfer begins. This differs from TCP/IP, in which messages are divided into packets and each packet can
take a different route from source to destination. This difference makes it easier to track and bill data usage
across an ATM network, but it makes it less adaptable to sudden surges in network traffic.
This ATM course provides the concepts you need to understand Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) in both practice
and potential. This class lays the foundation for ATM by explaining all the basics from formats and headers to
virtual circuits and connections. We also explore the evolution to an ATM network from a non-ATM network. You will
gain a business perspective on how ATM compares with alternative technologies, review the many interfaces, and
examine the protocol. In addition to an ATM overview, specific topics featured in this course include: congestion
control, the adaptation layer, carrier services, ATM backbones, IP over ATM, voice and video over ATM, Private
Network-to-Network Interface (PNNI), MPLS and ATM standard interfaces. |

| This 2-3-day ATM course will be customized to your needs and specifications. Eno.com will assist
you in identifying those needs and specifications. A word to the wise, there are many vendors of wireless training.
They will typically have a broad and general course, one size fits all, already developed and just put your organization’s
name on the title slide. This minimizes their effort and time investment. At Eno.com, every course is made to your
exact and exacting specifications. We help you ensure what you are getting is what you really need even if at the
beginning you weren’t too sure of what that was. We fit the class to your needs. We never fit you into our “standard”,
one size fits all, class. |
