The benefits of Frame Relay have become apparent to thousands of business users who demand multiple site, high speed connectivity for data networks. As Frame Relay services continue to grow, network service providers are looking for more efficient ways to utilize existing frame switches.

ADTRAN’s FramePort products offer high speed, high port density access to frame relay switches. Using ADTRAN BR1/10 channel bank technology, the FramePort interleaves bursty data traffic from many users into a single non- channelized DS-1, increasing the efficiency of the service providers’ broadband facilities and frame switch resources. The FramePort transforms the BR1/10 channel bank from a Time Division Multiplexer to a Frame Relay Data Multiplexer, offering higher port density and higher subscriber line speeds over current deploy- ment methods. By interleaving data traffic into the DS-1 on a statistical basis, the architecture is not constrained by rate or physical slot restrictions, allowing a single shelf to be fully populated.

The BR1/10 FramePort 768 is a single BR1/10 channel card equipped with an SDSL interface capable of port speeds ranging from 128 kbps to 768 kbps. A single DS1 can statistically multiplex ten users at 768 kbps each, yielding 5:1 concentra- tion over standard time-division multiplexing techniques.

ADTRAN offers SDSL customer premise equipment (CPE) to complement the BR1/10 FramePort 768, producing an end-to-end solution for the user demanding high speed frame relay connectivity. Both the BR1/10 FramePort 768 and BR1/10 Dual FramePort 144 can be deployed within the same channel bank.

The FramePort series is centrally managed through ADVISION, ADTRAN’s telco management solution running over HP OpenView or through remote Telnet sessions, perfectly sufficient for smaller installations. Physical layer connectivity is checked using loopback capabilities built into the FramePort products.

ADTRAN’s Frame Access product line enables frame relay service providers to build into their network the latest SDSL and IDSL technologies so in demand by today’s progressive business customer.
