While Frame Relay remains the most economical service to connect multiple corporate locations over PVCs (Private Virtual Connections ) at burst and fixed data rates, high-speed DSL is becoming the technology of choice for last mile access to FR networks. Patton’s  3086 is the flexible and economical customer premise solution to provide direct FR and IP connectivity for small and medium size branch offices.

The Patton  3086 ipRocketLink IAD redefines access and sets the new standard for customer premise equipment. Based on European Telecommunications Standardization Institute (ETSI) and International Telecommunications Union (ITU) G.SHDSL G.991.2 standard, the Patton 3086 ipRocketLink enables 2.3/4.6 Mbps speeds at nx64 (n=1..36/72) over a single pair of wires while combining standards-based transmission with Synchronous-Serial, Ethernet, and high speed IP routing…all in one compact package.

With Patton’s FlexIP™ architecture, the  Patton 3086 offers V.35/X.21 Sync-Serial interfaces and 10/100 Ethernet ports. The sync-serial port is user configurable for V.35 or X.21. Integrated software selectable DCE/DTE support eliminates messy crossover cables. The Ethernet port enables access to any IP network via ATM, PPP, or Frame Relay. Both interfaces can be simultaneously selected with user-defined bandwidth for each port.

The Patton 3086 boasts easy installation with DIP switch, Telnet, and WWW/SNMP management. It provides bridging and routing functionality, along with advanced IP features like NAT and Firewall, and optional IPSec-based VPN. As part of Patton’s family of ipDSL products, the  Patton 3086 offers a complete, managed, end-to-end system when used with Patton’s central site access concentrators.
