Thanks for the response. It is Singtel and I'm not sure what they are using. See In-line comments.

These cells will be subjected to be dropped by any switch along the way. On the egress switch where ATM-FR conversion occurs, the non-compliance cells will be mapped to DE on frame relay. So Any switch along the path can drops the frame/cell at will.
