OVERVIEW

1000 Series Nortel Secure Routers are ideal for T1/E1 Internet access to enterprise networks, for use by ISPs, and for WAN connections to remote offices—in short, anywhere you need secure, reliable, end-to-end LAN/WAN connectivity. These powerful routers deliver the highest throughput

at wire speed of any comparable router, making them particularly well suited for secure, converged solutions, including VoIP, private line WAN connectivity, video, IPsec VPN, data backup, and recovery applications.

Scalable

When you need more bandwidth, Secure Routers bridge the gap by maximizing bandwidth across multiple circuits to lower operational costs.

1000 Series Secure Routers can scale from fractional T1/E1 to wire-speed T1/E1 bandwidth. Integrated multilink capabilities enable you to bond up to four T1/E1 channels into a single logical circuit to create one connection with over 6 Mbps of bandwidth.

One, two, or four ports

The 1001 models are ideal for use in companies that want to connect branch offices and remote sites to a single-line T1/E1 service, and for a direct Internet connection. The 1001 models feature a single T1/E1 port and a 266-MHz processor for high-value at an economical price.

Choose the 1002 or 1004 models for high-performance WAN access for enterprise branch offices and remote sites. These routers provide two or four T1/E1 ports and high- performance 300-MHz processors.

Each router also includes an integrated CSU/DSU and two 10-/100-Mbps Ethernet ports for fast connections to your LAN.

Top performance

A fast-path forwarding engine maintains wire-speed throughput with low latency. Advanced Layer 2 switching and Layer 3 routing keep packets moving.

QoS optimizes bandwidth for data, voice, and video traffic so vital applications get priority and you get flawless multimedia without interfering with data applications. Comprehensive IP routing protocols provide high perfor- mance even with QoS enabled.

The routers have excellent latency and jitter characteristics. High-availability features such as BGP-4, VRRP, and NxT1/E1 bundling maximizes network uptime.
