Ethernet over SONET (EoSONET)/SDH framer
PMC Sierra

The PM8310 TEMUX 336 is a high density T1/E1 framer, VT/TU mapper, and M13 multiplexer with integrated SONET/SDH framers for OC- 12/STM-4 and 4xOC-3/STM-1 applications. Feature integration and scalability make the TEMUX 336 ideal for use in ATCA/AMC line cards, voice and media gateways, routers, and multi-service and edge aggregation switches.

The TEMUX 336 device's unique Extended Serial SONET/SDH Interface (ESSI) enables:

A low pin-count interconnect to additional TEMUX 336 devices for equipment protection applications
Higher-rate SONET/SDH framers such as the PM5336 ARROW 2488 for channelized OC-48/STM-16 designs
SONET/SDH cross-connects in transport applications
Ethernet over SONET/SDH mappers such as the PM4390 ARROW M8xFE
Additionally, the device's Scalable Bandwidth Interconnect (SBI) bus enables a simple interconnect to PMC-Sierra Layer 2 solutions such as the FREEDM (HDLC processor), S/UNI IMA (ATM inverse multiplexer) and AAL1gator (ATM-based CES processor) families.
