The
4300 Series Frame Relay Router is specifically designed
for business-critical branch internetworking at medium
or large branches on public, private or hybrid frame
relay networks. Engineered for exceptional price/performance,
the two to six port 4300 platform integrates in a single
box:
- An FT1/T1 DSU/CSU for connecting to
the frame relay network
- A BRI ISDN Terminal adapter or V.90
modem for dial backup
- A service modem for out-of-band network
management connection
- A token ring or Ethernet LAN interface
- Up to six serial data ports for SNA
or legacy applications
- A local network management port for
on-site management of the box
- Circuit Management via Virtual Network
Interactive Protocol (VNIP)
The 4300 runs award-winning FrameNode software,
which delivers business-critical SNA, powerful IP branch
routing and integral circuit management. The FrameNode
software features:
- Powerful multi-protocol quality of
service
- Non-disruptive SNA session rerouting
- Automatic dial backup
- Frame Relay bandwidth allocation and
burst management
BENEFITS
The FrameNode 4300 Series platform is a complete
branch internetworking solution delivering exceptional
price/performance over multi-box alternatives. This
enables you to add new services while reducing network
complexity and operating costs.
Its powerful connectivity and quality-of-service
features converge SNA, legacy and IP applications across
frame relay. The FrameNode's award-winning QoS capabilities
enable you to add new IP intranet applications without
compromising the performance of you existing mission-critical
applications.
The 4300 FrameNode is optimized for large,
hierarchical topologies common in branch networks. Its
extensive management tools allow these networks to be
rapidly migrated to frame relay. The proactive management
tools ensure optimal network availability with minimal
impact to opertional staff.
