Intel Express Router 9201
Flexible wide area networking using an analog
modem or ISDN as backup (EuroISDN only).
The flexibility of the Intel Express Router 9201 makes it
an ideal solution for the company with changing WAN
connectivity requirements. For example, a company can
start with dial-up support using the analog modem. Then,
if a faster dial-up link is required, the router offers support
for BRI (Basic Rate Interface) ISDN through the PC Card
slot. The BRI ISDN connection could be used as the primary
(or only) link to the WAN. It could also provide a safety
backup, while using the WAN port as the main connection.
WAN links:
■
One HDLC Serial Interface supporting Frame Relay,
X.25, PPP, LAPB, Leased Line (TI/EI)
■
One PC Card slot supporting either analog or BRI ISDN
(EuroISDN only) communications using the following
(modem not included):
For BRI ISDN (EuroISDN only):
– Eicon Diva* PCM
For analog modem communications:
– Xircom CreditCard Modem 28.8
– Xircom CreditCard Modem 33.6
– US Robotics Sportster PC Card 28.8 V.34 Faxmodem
– US Robotics Sportster 33.6Kbps PC Card 33.6 V.34+ Faxmodem
– US Robotics Courier V.Everything 33.6Kbps PC Card Modem
– US Robotics Worldport* PCMCIA V.34 CE Data/
Faxmodem 28.8Kbps
– US Robotics Worldport PCMCIA V.34+ CE Data/
Faxmodem 33.6Kbps
Intel Express Router 9300
Wide area networking with ISDN as the
primary or secondary link (EuroISDN only).
The BRI ISDN port can be a permanent or dial-up
connection. The Intel Express Router support for
Multilink PPP makes it possible to use the ISDN
connection to gain extra bandwidth (bandwidth on
demand) with a leased line connection running PPP
at the same speed. In this case, the ISDN connection
is made whenever WAN traffic exceeds a given amount,
then closes when traffic levels return to normal.
WAN links:
■
One HDLC Serial Interface supporting Frame Relay,
X.25, PPP, LAPB, Leased Line (TI/EI)
■
One integrated BRI ISDN port (EuroISDN only)
Intel Express Router 9400
Full Primary Rate Interface (PRI) ISDN performance
for central sites or high-bandwidth environments
(EuroISDN only).
The Intel Express Router 9400 features a PRI ISDN
(EuroISDN only) port that allows 62 connection profiles or
links to be defined and up to 30 simultaneous connections.
This high-performance capability makes the 9400 ideally
suited as a central-site solution.
To reduce WAN costs, the Intel Express Router 9400
takes unique advantage of hardware-based data compression.
This allows data compression at full line speed for the fastest
possible throughput – a powerful feature not found in most
other PRI ISDN routers in its category.
WAN links:

One PRI ISDN port (EuroISDN only) supporting
PPP and Multilink PPP
