1.  Portmaster 2ER



http://www.livingston.com/Marketing/Products/pm2e2er.shtml
20 serial ports and 5 port ISDN Expansion Card


The PortMaster 2E and 2ER Communications Servers are an economical and
easily expandable solution for securely connecting telecommuters,
Internet
users, and branch offices to network resources. These multi-port,
multi-service units support user-to-LAN dial-in/dial-out and LAN-to-LAN
multiprotocol routing over both analog and ISDN (Integrated Services
Digital Network) phone lines.


The PortMaster 2E modular communications server comes standard with 10
asynchronous serial ports or 5 ISDN BRI (basic rate interface) ports and

two expansion slots that will accept either two additional 10-port
asynchronous modules, two 5-BRI ISDN modules, or one of each.


The ISDN modules are available with S/T interfaces or U interfaces with
integrated NT-1s (network termination devices). Each of the 5 BRI ports
supports two B-channels for a total of 10 64-Kbps B-channels per module.

These B-channels can be used as individual ports for dial-in access or
can
be combined in aggregates of two or more using Multilink PPP (MP). The
PortMaster 2ER Communications Server comes with 20 asynchronous serial
ports and one expansion slot that has 5-BRI ISDN module. The PortMaster
2ER
also includes an additional T1/El synchronous routing port for a
leased-line or Frame-Relay connection to an enterprise WAN backbone or
Internet Service Provider (ISP). The PortMaster 2ER Communications
Server
provides an efficient and economical way for ISPs or corporations to
provide dial-in access for multiple local points of presence (POPs).

meets
or exceeds the most demanding requirements using V.34 modems and ISDN
links.


Modem ports can be used for both dial-in and dial-out access, ending the

need for dedicated inbound and outbound modems. Shared sources such as
printers and modems can be assigned to share "hunt groups." The

(thick-net,
twisted-pair, fiber optic.)



The PowerRack can be connected directly to a TCP/IP Ethernet LAN, or can

be booted independently and operated as a stand alone unit. It requires
no
special operating system device drivers, simplifying upgrades and TCP/IP

host cross-platform connectivity. Installation is menu-driven and can be

completed in a few minutes.

INTERESTING READING ABOUT REMOTE ACCESS


http://www.3com.com/nsc/raccesssc.html
=====================
Communication becomes challenging for small and medium-sized companies
with
branch offices, warehouses, or business partners located in various
geographical areas. They frequently need to share customer information,
check inventory, look up sales data, transfer files, process invoices,
and
exchange e-mail. Yet a dispersed organization cannot communicate
effectively and efficiently without the right technology.



To increase productivity and stay competitive, companies require
cost-effective interoffice connectivity solutions that combine
applications
availability with fast and timely access to business information, low
cost
of ownership to control wide-area connection and ongoing management
costs,
and scalability to protect investments and allow for expansion.


To select an appropriate interoffice connectivity solution for a
business,
several factors should be considered:
    The wide-area network (WAN) connectivity option best suited for
customer
needs
    The type of network server environment at the customer's branch
offices
    If there will be future business expansion at the customer's current
site
or the addition of branch offices
    If there will be a need to run mission-critical applications that
would
require constant applications availability
