Chapter 1 Introduction ASMi-52 Installation and Operation Manual
1-4 Overview
ASMi-52 supports multiple data rates in the range between 64 kbps and
4608 kbps. Data rate depends on the following factors:
Unit rate mode (regular or low speed)
Line interface type (2-wire or 4-wire)
DTE interface type of the local and remote units (serial or E1)
Clock mode (internal or external).
Table 1-2 and Table 1-3 detail the ASMi-52 data rates with all possible
combinations of rate mode types, line/DTE interface types, and clock modes.
