SWITCH
The CyberSWITCH family of products represents the latest in high-speed remote access hardware
and software tools. These products allow customers to implement the connectivity solution ideally
suited to the needs of their business - with support over a wide range of technologies covering both
permanent and on-demand connections using ISDN, analog modem, Frame Relay, dedicated lines,
and X.25.
The CyberSWITCH family of products can be used with a mix of bridges, routers, hosts, PCs, and
workstations. These combinations provide internetworking capabilities that will allow devices to
carry out LAN-to-LAN applications such as telecommuting, electronic mail, multi-media
transmission, imaging, and CAD. Devices “dial up” into a single system using a multi-line hunt
group to extend the capabilities offered by an enterprise LAN.
The CyberSWITCH’s Central Site platforms utilize a built in CPU to manage analog and digital
communications. The platforms consist of a number of modular slots that allow hardware
customization. This hardware, along with the system’s UAA software, work together to provide
the centralized, concentrator function needed to support a variety of remote devices in a larger,
Central Site environment.
