A major benefit is WAN bandwidth efficiency. Other terminal servers typically wrap that one letter in a 64-byte Ethernet packet, wasting bandwidth. Also, local terminals can use the RTS as a local LAN gateway to resources on remote LANs, eliminating the need for separate local terminal servers. The RTS delivers additional flexibility by supporting remote user access over dedicated lines as well as dial-up SLIP connections. Once a FlashPak is installed in a product, you get free access to future software releases for life.
Upgrades are simpler and less-costly.
They can be done from a single location. And they occur over the network, meaning you don't have to send personnel on-site to each location. NETMan allows downloads to individual nodes, groups of nodes or all nodes in the network. For maximum convenience Micom recommends FlashPaks, which support software upgrades over the network. Our ClearVoice technology combines this G.729 compliance with silence suppression, echo cancellation and dynamic bandwidth technologies to deliver outstanding voice quality, using very little bandwidth, over private leased lines and public frame relay connections.
