Intel Express Router 9200
Wide area networking using an analog
modem connection as a back-up link.
The Intel Express Router 9200 is an excellent solution for
environments requiring maximum reliability. The dial-up
connection can be used as a back-up in case the primary
link fails. It can also be used for separate Internet access,
or for occasional connections to other sites that are not
connected to a WAN on a permanent basis.
WAN links:
■
One HDLC Serial Interface supporting Frame Relay,
X.25, PPP, LAPB, Leased Line (TI/EI)
■
One PC Card slot supporting the following analog modems
(modem not included):
– Xircom CreditCard Modem 28.8

Intel Support Services.
Intel provides a broad range of support
services including free 90-day phone support and a 1 year limited
warranty. Hardware Maintenance Agreements are also available
as added protection for your investment in Express Routers.
Intel Express Routers overview
Intel offers five models of the Intel Express Router, each
one supporting all the features previously discussed. The
difference among the first four models (9100 - 9300) is in
the type of WAN connections they support. The Express
Router 9400 is a high-performance ISDN Primary Rate
Interface (EuroISDN) alternative. It provides hardware-
based data compression for the fastest possible throughput.
Models 9100, 9200, 9201 and 9300 each provide one or more
High-level Data Link Control (HDLC) WAN ports. These ports
will support as many as 62 links to user-defined sites. This is a
unique feature that provides an ideal solution for building wide
area networks linking many locations with Frame Relay, X.25
or EuroISDN. Data compression is also supported for each link
to improve throughput and reduce costs.
With an X.25 connection, each link can be defined as
a Switched Virtual Circuit (SVC) or a Permanent Virtual
Circuit (PVC). Switched Virtual Circuits are established
only when data is awaiting transmission; Permanent Virtual
Circuits are always available.
