F.1 High-Speed Packet Processor – Introduction
The High-Speed Packet Processor is an optional feature for the CDM-760 Advanced High-Speed
Trunking Modem. In addition to providing Layer 2 and Layer 3 functionality, it incorporates a
number of key features for Wide Area Network (WAN) bandwidth optimization. This includes
Header Compression, Quality of Service (QoS), and Static Routing.
The CDM-760 chassis features two rear panel slots that accommodate optional PIIC (Plug-in
Interface Card) synchronous traffic data modules. In place of PIICs, the CDM-760 can instead
accommodate the High-Speed Packet Processor option (Figure F-1). This option can be ordered
at time of initial purchase; the modem is shipped with the Packet Processor installed into the
chassis PCBs, with a rear chassis faceplate that is installed with #4-40 hex jack screws. It is also
available as a field upgrade kit (CEFD P/N KT-0020958).
