The "asynchronous" in ATM refers to the "transfer mode" between interfaces,
not the clocking on the interfaces...

Are you saying that ATM should be called STM?

I would submit that Ethernet is asynchronous because it is an ad hoc
medium and synchronization occurs in-band and is per packet. ATM is
synchronous because there are certain timeslots and synchronization
occurs out of band.
