Device Overview

The MT90870 has two data ports, the Backplane and the Local port. The Backplane port has two modes of operation, either 32 input and 32 output streams operated at 2.048 Mb/s, 4.096 Mb/s, 8.192 Mb/s or 16.384 Mb/s, in any combination, or 16 input and 16 output streams operated at 32.768 Mb/s. The Local port has 16 input and 16 output streams operated at 2.048 Mb/s, 4.096 Mb/s, 8.192 Mb/s or 16.384 Mb/s, in any combination. The MT90870 contains two data memory blocks (Backplane and Local) to provide the following switching path configurations:

? Backplane-to-Local, supporting 8 K x 4 K data switching,

? Local-to-Backplane, supporting 4 K x 8 K data switching,

? Backplane-to-Backplane, supporting 8 K x 8 K data switching.

? Local-to-Local, supporting 4 K x 4 K data switching.

The device contains two connection memory blocks, one for the Backplane output and one for the Local output. Data to be output on the serial streams may come from either of the data memories (Connection Mode) or directly from the connection memory contents (Message Mode).
