I want remember to you that video over ATM use AAL 5 because is VBR, and somebody told me that AAL 2 will use for Speech (as now) and for video signalling.

>>Between NodeB and RNC, vendors are offering only AAL2. It is very difficult to use AAL5 at this time. RNC can distinguish between AAL2 and AAL5. ATM cells are generated directly from NodeB so it is highly likely to use ATM over SDH in the backbone.

>>>I know, that UMTS backbone is based on SDH or DWDM backbone, because in the 3gpp release '99 all is ATM based, so propably all will be ATM over SDH. Infact between Node B and RNC there are AAL2 and AAL 5 interfaces so it will be ATM.
