DI-308 ISDN Remote Router
Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of a D-Link DI-308 remote access router with integrated Ethernet switch and ISDN T/A. No larger than an ordinary modem, your router offers inexpensive yet complete telecommunications and internetworking solutions for your home or branch office. It is ideal for everything from Internet browsing to receiving calls from Remote Dial-in Users and making connections to other LANs via Remote Nodes.
Distinguishing features of the DI-308 include support for a full range of networking protocols including TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol).
This complete solution also includes remote dial-in user support, an Internet single- user account (Network Address Translation) option, extensive network management capabilities, and solid security features.
Product Features
The DI-308 router is packed with features that give it the flexibility to provide a complete networking solution for almost any small to medium-sized office environment.
Ease of Installation
Your DI-308 is a self-contained unit that is quick and easy to install. Physically, it resembles an external modem; however, it is a combination ISDN router and Ethernet switch, and it uses twisted-pair Ethernet cables to connect to the host network.
Built-in Switch
A dual-speed NWay switch, the DI-308 provides eight ports for connecting network end nodes—single-user computers, servers, bridges, other routers, etc.—through standard “straight-through” twisted-pair cables and one port for making an “uplink” connection to another hub or switch through the same type of straight-through cable used to connect end nodes.
ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI)
Using a standard S/T the DI-308 supports DSS1 ISDN switches. The two ISDN B- channels can be used independently for two destinations, or they can be bundled together for one high-bandwidth connection supporting bandwidth-on-demand.
