    Functions The UTRP2 is an extended transmission board for the UMTS network and is available as

    of RAN11.0/SRAN3.0. There are two FE/GE optical ports on the UTRP2. Each of the

    two ports provides a data rate of 100 Mbit/s or 1000 Mbit/s and performs Ethernet Media

    Access Control (MAC) layer functions, including sending and receiving Ethernet link

    data and translating MAC addresses.

    The UTRP3 is an extended transmission board for the UMTS network. The UTRP3

    provides eight E1/T1 links, where ATM cell flows are inversely multiplexed and

    de-multiplexed.

    The UTRP4 is an extended transmission board for the UMTS network. The UTRP4

    provides eight E1/T1 links, performs HDLC deframing and framing, and allocates and

    controls 256 HDLC timeslots.
