ATM Glossary
Asynchronous Transfer Mode Adaptation Layer
(AAL) - Standardized protocols used to translate
higher layer services from multiple applications into
the size and format of an ATM cell. Individual
protocols are indexed as per the examples below:
Active - This is a link state indicating the link is
capable of passing ATM Layer cells in the specified
direction.
Aligned - IMA Frames are said to be aligned if they
are transmitted simultaneously.
Asynchronous
1. Not synchronous; not periodic.
2. The temporal property of being sourced from
independent timing references, having different
frequencies and no fixed phase relationship
3. In telecommunications, data which is not
synchronized to the public network clock.
4. The condition or state of being unable to
determine exactly when an event will transpire prior
to its occurrence.
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) - A method of
organizing information to be transferred into fixed-
AAL0 - Native ATM cell transmission propri-
etary protocol featuring 5-byte header and 48-
byte user payload.
AAL1 - Used for the transport of constant bit
rate, time-dependent traffic (e.g. voice, video);
requires transfer of timing information between
source and destination; maximum of 47-bytes
of user data permitted in payload as an addi-
tional header byte is required to provide
sequencing information.
AAL5 - Usually used for the transport of vari-
able bit rate, delay-tolerant data traffic and sig-
nalling which requires little sequencing or
error-detection support.
