ATM Leased Circuit Service
ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) technology makes it possible to build an efficient multimedia network which integrates various information over one circuit. ATM Mega Link Service, which uses guaranteed high-speed bandwidths, is the optimal choice for an ATM-WAN trunk line.

Transmission speed is guaranteed, so ATM Mega Link is well suited to applications that require real-time connections for voice and video. This service can provide powerful support in constructing private networks that integrate a variety of media and uses, such as for intranets, PBX and image transfer.
ATM Mega Link provides the flexibility to set up the service most compatible with your system. You decide the transmission speed when you sign up. Choose from 136 levels including 0.5Mbit/s or anywhere from 1 to 135Mbit/s in 1Mbit/s increments.
There are three different service classes - Dual Class, Extra Class and Single Class, for backup of the network section between NTT EAST facilities during breakdowns. Either single- or double-fiber cable can be installed in the access section between NTT EAST and customer facilities. Customers can choose the appropriate service class to meet their system and application needs.

|---|---|---|
| Network Section (see map at right) | 1. Dual Class Features automatics line switching when circuit failure occurs. |
Type 2 |
| 2. Extra Class Features automatics line switching when circuit failure occurs, and the spare line is used for regular transmission as well. |
Type 1 Type 2 |
|
| 3. Single Class No automatics line switching when circuit failure occurs. |
Type 1 Type 2 |

All NTT EAST areas
Multiple circuits can be set up to go through a single fiber optic cable for the Access Section between NTT EAST and the customer's head office.

Different speeds within a single ATM leased circuit can be allocated.

High-speed, high-volume ATM Mega Link Service gives the reliability needed for network backbones linking company's important branch offices.

With ATM Mega Link Service, a mesh network securing multiple transmission routes can be built economically.
