| 1.What is the
Multiband product family? |
The Multiband MAX ?products are the
newest members of the Multiband family of bandwidth-on-demand
controllers are powerful platforms for voice, data
and video application. Multiband products are ideally
suited for desktop, room and multipoint video, leased
line backup and overflow, disaster recovery, PBX voice
traffic and other applications with fluctuating bandwith
need.
Using industry-leading inverse multiplexing technology
developed and patented by Asend, Multiband products
let you build flexible, low-cost global networks from
digital dial-up bandwith that you pay for only as
you use it, when you need it. |

| 2. What is inverse
multiplexing and what applications use? |
| Inverse multiplexing is the ability
to aggregate discrete data channels on one side of
a "lack box"and create a single large data channel
out the other side. In the products discussed below,
discrete switch digital channels (such as 56K or 65K)
may be aggregated to deliver a single synchronous
serial data stream on a V.35 or RS-499 interface.
The most common applications today use inverse multiplexing
for direct dial videoconferencing and WAN connection
backup/overflow over switched digital network. |

| 3. Can these
Pipelines place concurrent data calls to different
destinations? |
|
The Pipeline 50, 75, and 130 support up to eight
different Call Profiles. The two B-channels of an
ISDN BRI line limit the number of concurrent different
locations to two. Yes, you can "split the B-channels"
and simultaneously access two different locations
with the Pipeline 50 and 75. The Pipeline 130's
prime function is as a Frame Relay router and allows
you to specify up to eight different DLCI's with
an ISDN BRI backup/overflow.

| 4. How do I attach
my PC to a Pipeline? |
| Pipeline family products are bridge/router
devices that provide an Ethernet network connection.
To hook your PC to a Pipeline, install an Ethernet
network interface card (NIC) and load the appropriate
drivers on your PC. Use the included 2510-0084-001
Ethernet crossover cable to connect the Ethernet card
in your PC to the Pipeline. This provides a LAN connection
between your PC and any member of the Pipeline family.
If you have multiple workstations that you want to
put on the Ethernet segment, you'll need a hub and
straight-through cabling (we recommend CAT 5 cable
with RJ-45 connectors). |

|
| |
| 5. What application
use Pipeline Family? |
|
The Pipeline Family is used for Telecommuting,
Remote access, Internet access, Small Office/Home
Office (SOHO)
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
| 6. What is Hybrid
Access? |
|
Hybrid Access supports remote networking for modems
and also for network devices that use ISDN or Frame
Relay (terminal adapters, FRADs) to support digital
sessions. Hybrid Access converts the MAX from an
analog terminal server to a full-featured hybrid
WAN access switch.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
| 7. What is the
main application for the MAX 2000? |
|
The MAX 2000 provides WAN access connectivity to
remote clients for LANs in small offices to the
backbone ISP network, corporate network, or the
carrier network. It is primarily expected to be
deployed in small offices or ISP POPs.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
| 8. What are the
different hardware ordering options for the MAX 3000?
|
The product is available in 3 base
WAN configurations: 2 T1, 2 E1, or 6 BRI. Each of
the three versions is available with or without built-in
Series 56 III digital modems: 24 on the T1 model,
30 on the E1 model, and 12 on the BRI model. Additional
digital modems can be added to the MAX 3000 via two
expansion slots. For example, to add modem capacity
for a second T1 or E1 WAN port, a 24 or 30 port modem
card can be added.
All MAX 3000's come standard with a full-duplex, autosensing
10/100 Ethernet port, one serial console port, and
one high speed serial WAN port. The T1 version comes
with an additional T1 interface for drop and insert
functionality. |

|
| |
| 9. What is the
MultiDSP Module - 96 Port? |
|
Supports remote access dial-up (V.90 modem and
ISDN) and VoIP rate adaptation for the APX 8000
and MAX TNT solutions at the central site by integrating
into these WAN access switches. Offers support for
all of the standard modem modes to users dialing
in on both analog and digital lines.

| |
| 10. What is the
Lucent is MultiVoice for the MAX product? |
|
The MultiVoice ™ for the MAX ™ product allows ordinary
telephones to connect to other telephones using
a public or private packet network. This is accomplished
using a standard voice-over-IP (VoIP) gateway that
allows ordinary telephone calls to be transmitted
across a packet network. Lucent's VoIP gateway is
known as the MultiVoice Gateway for the MAX.
The gateway supports the ITU-T H.323 standard
for transmitting voice over an IP network. When
a voice call is received at a near-end MultiVoice
Gateway, the voice signal is packetized, compressed,
and transmitted over the packet network using standard
protocols and voice compression technologies. At
the far-end gateway the process is reversed and
the call is delivered over the remote PSTN to its
intended destination.
