1. TA 544 OVERVIEW

The Total Access 544 is a complete solution Integrated Access Device (IAD) for Voice over ATM (VoATM) appli-

cations. The unit includes a modular network interface, Nx64 V.35 interface, 10/100BaseT interface, ISDN ports, and

an optional battery back-up (1200641L1) for added security. The TA 544 can provision, test, and provide status for

any of the voice and data interfaces. All connections are made via the rear panel (see Figure 1). In addition to a built-

in IP router, the TA 544 contains an Echo Canceller necessary for VoATM applications.

Appendix A, on page 49, contains detailed specifications for the TA 544.

Figure 1. TA 544 Rear Panel

Firmware Updates

Firmware can be updated by using XMODEM transfer protocol via the unit’s

CRAFT

port (see Figure 1) or by using

TFTP from a network server. (See Appendix B on page 51 and Appendix C on page 54.)

Terminal Menu

The terminal menu is the access point to all other operations. Each terminal menu item has several functions and sub-

menusthat identify and provideaccessto specificoperationsand parameters.Thesemenu selectionsare describedlater

in this User Manual.

2. VOICE OVER DSL OVERVIEW

Voice over DSL (VoDSL) refers to providing toll quality voice access to the Public Switched Telephone Network

(PSTN) over twisted copper pair using DSL. Data canbe combined with multiple voice lines over a single medium via

DSL, thus yielding many advantages over traditional TDM technologies.

Traditional TDM technologies are limited by statically allocating bandwidth. DSL overcomes this by providing a large

bandwidth and utilizing other technologies, such as ATM, to dynamically assign bandwidth as it is needed. Because

of this, the user is able to add voice and data connections over a DSL line with flexibility and ease.

3. VOICE OVER ATM OVERVIEW

Voice over ATM is the technology used to transmit voice conversations over a data network using Asynchronous

Transfer Mode (ATM). There are several potential benefits to moving voice over a data network using ATM. First, the

See Appendix D on page 57 for instructions about navigating the terminal menus.

ISDN

TA 544 User Manual/61200704L1-1A

Page 14 of 68

small, fixed-length cells require lower processing overhead. Second, these small, fixed-length cells allow higher trans-

mission speeds than traditional packet switching methods.

ATM allocates bandwidth on demand, making it suitable for high-speed connection of voice, data, and video services.

Conventional networks carry data in a synchronous manner. Because empty slots are circulating even when the link is

not needed, network capacity is wasted. ATM automatically adjusts the network capacity to meet the system needs.

4. VOICE OVER DSL APPLICATION

Figure 2 shows a typical VoDSL application. The TA 544 connects to the ATM network, via a DSLAM, to provide

both voice and high speed data from a single platform.
