ABSTRACT:
A translator in an element of a wideband network transforms a format restored by a CCITT information cell into other predetermined formats. It performs this function by inserting cells from a microprocessor into network data flow in asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) and extracting from the network data flow cells addressed to the microprocessor. The translator includes an input portion for receiving input data cells from the network data flow and for modifying a header of cells in the input data so as to adapt them to perform functions in the ATM layer. Preferably, the translator is implemented as an integrated circuit which serves as an interface between the network and the microprocessor, and which configures and manages asynchronous transfer mode multiplexer functions.
