Abstract
AbstractThis paper discusses the architecture of ATM‐based customer premises networks (CPN), which can easily be tailored to the needs of a broad range of residential and (small) business customers.A first part analyses the functions of the classical CCITT reference model, and regroups them into building blocks for a new model. This model features a high degree of modularity, and interfaces with low‐level functionality. The building blocks for this CPN are the network termination, connection subnets and switching subnets.Following this, some issues related to the user‐network interface standardization are addressed, as this interface has potential to be a candidate for application in the whole CPN. Owing to publication schedules, the author did not have the opportunity to take into account the recent decisions taken by CCITT concerning ATM standards.
