FrameNet dynamically provides bandwidth to four user defined Quality of Service levels insuring time sensitive data enjoys peak network performance. The FrameMux can serve as a single, Frame Relay network Access Device (FRAD), that allows up to sixteen serial ports (e.g. SDLC, HDLC, SNA, X.25 and Async Frame Relay), plus the integral IEEE 802.3 LAN module to enjoy performance and cost benefits from FrameMux technology.
FrameMux technology enables direct connection of multiple FRADs, bridges, routers and legacy protocol devices to public, private and hybrid frame relay networks. Built-in switching permits any to any connectivity with reduced DLCI access charges. The FrameMux supports re-routing and healing around trunk and nodal faults using alternate paths or dial backup without regard to physical topology. This flexibility avoids the network planning and budget headache imposed by devices which operate only in a point-to-point mode and require star topologies.
FrameMux Network Management and Control functions provide real time access to all backbone functions. Remote configuration, management and diagnostics can be performed in real time without disrupting active traffic. Network alarms and reports are generated for problem detection and isolation. The FrameMux products provide the "Enabling Technology". Their optimized network performance, reduced operating costs, superior flexibility and ATM/SMDS scalability make FrameMux an easy choice to fulfill your network requirements.
