1. Use HSTR uplinks to increase

backbone access

nResilience, load sharing and higher

access speeds

2 x 100Mbps

Backbone

If bandwidth still needs to be extended, the DeskStream supports

HSTR uplink modules - both copper and fibre. These only work as a

point to point full duplex link and so potentially will allow a 200Mbps

connection.
