Abstract

A device that includes a plurality of transceivers configurable to simultaneously operate with a combination of bonded and unbonded transceivers. A first transceiver of the plurality of transceivers is operable at a first data rate, and a second transceiver of the plurality of transceivers is simultaneously operable at a second data rate that is different than the first data rate. The first and second transceivers are operable as bonded transceivers and wherein a third transceiver, of the plurality of transceivers, is simultaneously operable at a third data rate and the third transceiver is not bonded with any other transceiver.

Claims

1. A communication system that allows the transmission of ATM over a communications link comprising:

an ATM stream;

a transmitter multi-pair multiplexer module, a receiver multi-pair multiplexer module; and

a plurality of ATM substreams each associated with a multiple twisted wire pair, wherein the ATM stream is distributed between the plurality of ATM substreams.
