_AL4

The USRP2 GbE transport can support 32 (0-31) independent streams of
data.  Channel 31 is reserved for the control channel, making 30 the
largest valid data channel number.

These independent channels will be used to send streams from multiple
USRP2s ganged together over their high-speed interconnect bus and
connected to the host via a single GbE.
