ATM uses cell switching technology because -
ATM uses cell switching technology because -
The correct option is B All of the above
Asynchronous transfer
mode (ATM) is a switching
technique used by telecommunication networks that uses asynchronous
time-division multiplexing to encode data into small, fixed-sized cells. This
is different from Ethernet or internet, which use variable packet sizes for
data or frames.
Asynchronous transfer
mode (ATM) provides functionality that is similar to both
circuit switching and packet switching networks: ATM uses
asynchronous time-division multiplexing, and encodes data into small, fixed-sized
packets called cells.
ATM uses cell
switching technology because
When a connection is
established it is known as signaling. It is called cell switching because this
methodology uses a fixed
length of packets of 53 bytes out of which 5 bytes are reserved for header.
Unlike cell technology, packet switching technology uses variable
length packets. Cell
switching has many
advantages.
It is highly flexible and can handle
both constant rate and variable rate traffic easily
At the very high speeds envisioned
digital switching of cell is easier than using traditional multiplexing
techniques especially using fiber optics
For Television distribution,
broadcasting is essential, cell switching can provide this and circuit
switching cannot
