The ASP is the ATM Switch Processor not an ATM port adapter.
Think of the ASP as being the Supervisor Engine for the Lightstream ATM Switche

The 5500 simply lets you put one into slot 13 making an ATM switch down in the
lower card slots.
It is an independant switch though logically just not physically.
