Customer Profile
Multiprotocol branch access routing where
support for a wide range and number of
interfaces is required.
Typical Applications
Nortel Networks Advanced Remote Node (ARN) is a
branch access router that provides enhanced
connectivity and forwarding capabilities for remote
locations. A Motorola 33 MHZ 68040 microprocessor
ensures high forwarding and filtering rates, scaling
up to 25,000 pps across each of its network
interfaces. The ARN provides highspeed WAN
connectivity, high interface density, legacy traffic
transport, dial services, dual LAN support, and
available RMON hardware/software support.
The Advanced Remote Node (ARN) delivers the
performance and modularity to solve today’s
application needs and meets the increasing
demands of the evolving corporate intranet.
Its design integrates the functions of multiple
devices to reduce the complexity of remote network
management. As a result, the ARN significantly
lowers the total cost of ownership and provides the
highest degree of investment protection for
enterprise networks.
