Applications

CONDOR versus ATM Switch

CONDORCheap

Easy configuration

No VPI/VCI re-mapping

No routing between slave ports

Fast protection switching

ATM SwitchExpensive

Complex configuration

VPI/VCI re-mapping

Routing between all ports

Limited or none protection switching

CONDOR versus ADM

CONDORHigh granularity because of ATM

High number of independent connections

No de-multiplexing

Policing

Filtering of single connections

ADMFixed granularity because of container structure

Limited number of connections

DeMux required

CONDOR versus HF Splitter

CONDORActive

Backward channel available(bi-directional)

Support of optical and electrical interfaces

HF-SplitterPassive

No backward channel available(uni-directional)

Support for electrical signals only
