The Remote Access Router uses high speed ISDN connections to offer a transfer rate of up to 128kbps, which is just over twice as fast as current modem technology. The ISDN connections are made on demand, virtually instantaneously, and are cleared when not in use. You may communicate with several different remote LAN s alternately and up to two connections may be made at any one time. In today s world of high speed links and digital technology the Remote Access Router enables large data blocks, such as 24 or 32 bit graphical image files or large database files to be transmitted in minutes rather than hours.
File transfer becomes a simple task that can be accomplished at the click of a mouse button.
As a cost saving device, the Remote Access Router will hold the line open whilst data is transferred and automatically close it when data stops. Unlike a modem connection, however, it will keep a virtual line open so that when data transfer begins again the connection will be restored in under a second. In this example you would only pay for call time in which data is being transferred. The Remote Access Router will also communicate with other industry standard routers. Organisations linking their offices using the Remote Access Router are able to share data, query remote databases, exchange E-mail and even print remotely.
