User manual
35 
is included in the header of an ATM cell. The valid VCI 
range is 32 to 65535. Enter the VCI assigned by the ISP.  
QoS 
UBR (Unspecified Bit Rate) – Select UBR for applications 
that are non-time sensitive, such as e-mail. 
CBR (Constant Bit Rate) – This class is used for 
emulating circuit switching. The cell rate is constant with 
time. Select CBR to specify fixed (always on) bandwidth 
for voice or data traffic. 
nrtVBR (non-real time Variable Bit Rate) – This class 
allows users to send traffic at a rate that varies with time 
depending on the availability of user information. 
Statistical multiplexing is provided to make optimum use 
of network resources. Multimedia e-mail is an example of 
nrtVBR. 
rtVBR (real time Variable Bit Rate) – This class is similar 
to nrtVBR but is designed for applications that are 
sensitive to cell-delay variation. Examples for real-time 
VBR are voice with speech activity detection (SAD) and 
interactive compressed video. 
PCR 
Divide the DSL line rate (bps) by 424 (the size of an ATM 
cell) to find the PCR (Peak Cell Rate). This is the 
maximum rate at which the sender can send cells. 
CDVT 
PCR generally is coupled with the CDVT (Cell Delay 
Variation Tolerance), which indicates how much jitter is 
allowable. 
SCR 
SCR (Sustain Cell Rate) is the average rate over a long 
interval, in the order of the connection lifetime. 
MBS 
MBS (Maximum Burst Size) refers to the maximum 
number of cells that can be sent at the peak rate. Enter 
the MBS, which is less than 65535.
