SPS-3S, SPS-6, SPS-12
Multiprotocol Packet Switches

Product Summary

RAD's SPS-3S, SPS-6 and SPS-12 multiprotocol packet switches are high performance Frame Relay/X.25 switches. All units allow legacy protocols to run over IP networks. SPS-3S, SPS-6 and SPS-12 multiprotocol packet switches include features such as transparent bridging, dynamic bandwidth allocation, data prioritization, and automatic backup facilities.

Benefits

• Multiple protocols in one device saves equipment costs and simplifies network management

• Cost-effective method to enable users to run legacy applications over newer packet-switched networks

Quick Specs

Further Product Information

The SPS-3S, SPS-6 and SPS-12 are high performance Frame Relay/X.25 multiprotocol switches. Each port can be configured to one of several protocols: Frame Relay, X.25, ISDN, RIP, RIP-2, PPP, MLPPP, SDLC, HDLC, SLIP, async, or Ethernet.

Packet switching between applications, plus transmission of legacy data over IP

The SPS-3S, SPS-6 and SPS-12 can perform packet switching between different applications such as X.25 to X.25; X.25 to Frame Relay; Frame Relay to Frame Relay; and SLIP to SLIP. They can also encapsulate various protocols over Frame Relay and X.25.

In addition, the SPS products can offer a unique solution for transmitting legacy data over high speed IP networks by encapsulating the data into IP packets.

The built-in management agent enables configuration, compilation of statistics and status reports, and diagnostics. The management agent can be accessed from any location in the network. It can be programmed to transmit this information as the result of an alarm event.

The SNMP agent enables management by the RADview graphical user interface on a PC or HP OpenView UNIX station, permitting the products to be configured and controlled via the X.25/Frame Relay network.

Link interfaces are modular and can be ordered for RS-232/V.24, V.35, RS-530, X.21, V.36, as well as ISDN S and U interfaces. Each interface is switchselectable for DCE or DTE. Both the protocol and the interface can be independently selected on any port.

SPS-3S, SPS-6 and SPS-12 are 1U high, standalone units. The SPS-3S is half-19" and SPS-6 and SPS-12 are 19" units.
