ML700 Architecture
This section describes the general architecture of ML700 family of products. ML700
architecture consists of the following main functional blocks:
 Ethernet Bridge and Control – supports Ethernet (ETH-x) and Ethernet-like (HSL-1)
Service ports, provides 802.1Q VLAN-aware bridging between these ports, system
control and management functionalities.
 EFM Bonding – part of HSL-1 Ethernet-like service port functionality. Supports IEEE
802.3ah /ITU-T 998.2 G.BOND/Ethernet aggregation functionality with transmission and
reception of Ethernet frame via multiple modems.
 DMT Modems – 2, 4 or 8 modems options (model dependent). Modems support the
following transmission modes: either ADSL2 (ITU-T G.992.3), ADSL2 Plus (ITU-T
G.992.5) or VDSL2 (ITU-T G.993.2).
NOTE: ML700-R when operating in a P2MP (point-to-multipoint) system with approved DSLAM
vendors will work using EFM bonding as defined in IEEE 802.3ah.
