Introduction

FrameStart is an intuitive frame-relay configuration, analysis, and diagnostic
feature set that incorporates the capabilities of expensive test analysis
equipment into the functionality of a high-quality line of CSU/DSU products.

The Verilink FrameStart engine operates at wire-speed to deliver the most
economical frame relay diagnostic information in the industry today for the
price. The price-to-performance ratio of this product line is unequaled when
compared to any of the major brand providers.

The DDS CSU/DSU Network unit is a synchronous Digital Data Service
CSU /DSU with FrameStart capability targeted at frame-relay applications.
The DDS CSU/DSU also provides many useful diagnostic features and
operates in standard DDS I and DDS II modes. This product operates in a
frame-relay environment or on private (leased) line applications in a point-to-
point environment.

The T1 Network unit is a T1 CSU/DSU with FrameStart capability and
operates at fractional T1 rates up to a full T1 carrier service. This product also
operates in a frame-relay environment, leased line service, or LDM (limited
distance modem) private-line applications.

The FrameStart FSE E1 Network unit is an E1 CSU/DSU with FrameStart
capability and operates at fractional E1 rates up to a full E1 carrier service.
This product also operates in a frame-relay environment, leased line service,
or LDM (limited distance modem) private-line applications.

Verilink has two options available in the FrameStart family of products--
FrameStart Install and FrameStart Monitor--for both the DDS and T1 CSU
DSU units. The FrameStart FSE unit has an option for the FrameStart
Monitor only.
