About This Part
The Nortel Networks NTLX73BA is an Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) interface card designed for integration within Nortel Passport 15000 and 7000 series switches. This module facilitates the transmission of voice, video, and data traffic over ATM networks, a cell-based switching technology known for its robust Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities. Typical use cases include supporting legacy enterprise networks, carrier backbone infrastructure, or specialized access networks where ATM's traffic management features are critical for service delivery. Specifically, the NTLX73BA provides OC-3/STM-1 (Optical Carrier Level 3 / Synchronous Transport Module Level 1) connectivity, offering a data rate of 155 Mbps. This high-speed interface is essential for multiplexing diverse traffic streams and ensuring efficient, reliable data transfer within existing ATM infrastructures. It plays a vital role in maintaining the operational continuity and performance of Nortel Passport deployments.
