Optional Features
Rack Mounting Capabilities —
The CSX200 can be installed in a 19-inch rack with an
accessory package that includes the rackmount brackets, a strain-relief bracket for cable
management, and mounting screws. The part number for the accessory package is
CSX200-ACCY-KIT. See
Chapter 4
,
Installation
for complete rack mounting instructions.
Hardware Data Compression Module (CSX200-COMP/ENCR) —
The same industry standard
STAC Electronics Stacker LZS Compression algorithm supported by CSX200 software is made
available by an optional hardware data compression module that accelerates data compression for
the CSX200 over PPP and Frame Relay. Depending on the packet type and size, hardware data
compression provides a minimum of 2:1 data compression, giving 3 Mbps throughput on a T-1
WPIM interface. To use the hardware data compression module, compatible equipment (such as
the CSX200, CSX400, and HSIM-W6 or other vendors’ equipment which conforms to the
applicable standards), must be in use at both ends of the WAN link. When the hardware data
compression module is installed on the board, it automatically assumes the compression task from
software. There is no configuration necessary to prioritize hardware over software compression.
CSX200 Firmware Support
The CSX200 firmware supports IEEE 802.1d bridging, and IP and IPX routing,. Wide Area
Networking includes
Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)
,
and
Frame Relay
. Remote access is via Full
or Fractional T1, E1, Synchronous, Digital Data Service, or HDSL connections.
This device supports industry-standard protocols, security features, compression algorithms and
network management tools to ensure interoperability with equipment from other vendors.
