Juniper Networks ATM and ATM2 IQ Physical Interface Cards (PICs) offer flexible, highly-available solutions for the termination of ATM access networks, and provide support for the progressive transition to an all-IP/MPLS infrastructure. The ATM2 IQ PICs provide a very rich and robust set of quality of service (QoS) and traffic management features aimed at facilitating:

  • The seamless and progressive network transformation from a legacy ATM backbone to an all-IP/MPLS infrastructure
  • The introduction of new revenue-generating IP services to ATM-connected enterprises, such as Layer 2 and Layer 3 provider-provisioned VPNs

ATM2 IQ Physical Interface Cards (PICs)

Supported by both the Juniper Networks M-series and T-series routers, the ATM2 Intelligent Queuing (IQ) PICs are available in 4-port DS3, 2-port and 4-port E3, 2-port OC-3, 1-port OC-12, and 2-port OC-12 versions. The ATM2 IQ PICs leverage the JUNOS operating system's MPLS traffic engineering and hardware-based QoS capabilities to deliver seamless transport of multiservice traffic over the IP/MPLS infrastructure. Designed to provide rich, granular ATM QoS and signaling functionalities, the ATM2 IQ PICs are a key element in the delivery of a guaranteed high-quality, end-to-end user experience.

Features and Applications

As bandwidth needs continue to increase, migrations of legacy data service and voice traffic to a converged IP/MPLS infrastructure must maintain the premium-quality service levels that users expect and rely upon. Hard-won brand equity and service revenues must be protected, and service degradation is intolerable.

Juniper Networks understands these critical considerations, and delivers the hardware and software-based solutions to gracefully migrate business-critical traffic from ATM environments to a converged IP/MPLS network infrastructure. The ATM and ATM2 IQ PICs are central enablers of this network transformation, and are based upon a very robust set of JUNOS IP/MPLS and ATM service capabilities.

Examples of applications enabled by the ATM and ATM2 IQ PICs include:

Multiservice transport over MPLS

  • Circuit Cross-Connect for multiservice transport over an IP/MPLS infrastructure
  • Comprehensive support for "draft Martini" encapsulation
  • Ethernet over ATM (per RFC 2684)
VPN Services
  • Support for Layer 3 provider-provisioned VPNs over ATM interfaces
  • Support for Layer 2 provider-provisioned VPNs
  • Support for Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS)
  • Full suite of additional VPN services
