2, 4, 8, or 16 RS-232

serial ports, sup- porting data rates up to 115.2 kbps. Available in three chassis: standalone (with DB25 RS-232 ports), standalone (with RJ-45 RS-232 ports), or rackmount (with RJ-45 RS-232 ports). Instant connection to 10-Mbps Ethernet. Compatible with all known varieties of UNIX ®, plus WINS support for Windows environments. T ired of 10-Mbps Ethernet terminal servers that still “don’t do” TCP/IP and have no clue how to talk to your UNIX computers? Our Enhanced TCP/IP Terminal Servers are ready for your network. They come in two 8- or 16-port varieties and one 2- or 4-port variety. The standalone 8- or 16-port version has regular DB25 female RS-232 connectors (pinned as DTE). The rackmount 8- or 16-port version has RS-232 RJ-45 sockets. The standalone 2- or 4-port version has RS-232 RJ-45 sockets. (Both DB25 and RJ-45 ports carry all signals necessary for full modem control; less expensive, more flexible twisted-pair cable can be used with the RJ-45 port.) These ports can be set for any standard data format or flow-control option and for most standard async data rates from 50 bps to 115.2 kbps. You can attach a network cable to any one (but only one) of Tx Rx 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 POWER AUI 10BASE2 10BASE-T POWER AUI 10BASE2 10BASE-T 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 Attach your PCs, terminals, printers, and especially modems to a Terminal Server for instant connectivity to your UNIX hosts. Key Features ENHANCED TCP/IPTERMINAL SERVERS the 8- or 16-port Terminal Server’s three Ethernet ports (AUI, ThinNet, or 10BASE-T); it will autosense the connection and establish its network presence immediately. The Terminal Servers are compatible with every type of UNIX we’ve tested them with, including Linux ®, SCO ® UNIX and Gemini ®, AIX ®, Solaris ®, HP-UX ®, DG/UX ®, BSD ®, IRIX ®, and Citrix ® Winframe ®. All models are also compatible with Windows ® 3.x, 95, 98, Windows NT ®, and Windows 2000, though some of their important features (such as TFTP and dial-out socket connections) are not yet available under Windows. Whatever you want to do with TCP/IP, the servers most likely will handle the protocol. They operate with Telnet™ and rlogin for session control; PPP, SLIP, and CSLIP for modem and remote- access support; lpd and rcp for printer support; ARP and BOOTP for network-based setup; DNS for internetworking support; and gateway tables for IP-routing support, among others. The servers also fully support SNMP, and they come with proprietary software that includes utilities that extend modem and printer support, add “fixed tty” support for terminals, and process proprietary SNMP variables. The servers have a pop-up menu system (with on-screen help) that can appear in multiple terminals and in any of five languages (English, French, Spanish, German, or Italian). Security’s assured. The units support supervisor and port passwords; port locking; authentication (including PAP); user access profiles; logging for service, audit, and billing; and modem auto-reset.
