Technical Details for Bintec R3800

Bintec R3800 ... this device enables a transmission capacity of up to 9.2 Mbps. If the router is operated in back-to-back mode, physically separated LANs can be networked with symmetrical bandwidths.

SHDSL connection provides enterprises with symmetrical bandwidth, i.e. with the same transmission speed in both directions. This connection is particularly well suited to such hosting services as the provision of web and e-mail servers or of virtual workplaces (e.g. Citrix Metaframe, Windows TS). SHDSL is ideal for applications with equal data transmission for up and downstream, such as video teleconferencing or the integration of satellite stations.

Thanks to the integrated IMA function (Inverse Multiplexing via ATM), the bintec R3800 offers the option of bundling a bandwidth of 9.2 Mbps. If required, the additional ISDN interface is able to set up reliable backup connections, thus providing for the high availability of business-critical applications.

The comprehensive IPSec implementation supports the set-up of secure VPN infrastructures. Straight from the factory, the routers are already equipped with ten active IPSec tunnels. 3DES or AES is used for encryption, authentication can be provided with preshared keys or certificates. The integration of a Radius server also presents no problem. Additional VPN tunnels can be activated by purchasing a corresponding license.

A wide variety of different software features round out these devices. The stateful inspection firewall provides protection from attacks from the outside, while Content Filtering makes it possible to screen out web contents before they reach the internal network. The integrated PPPoE client/server function defines user-specific rules and regulations for the use of the Internet. QoS mechanisms can be activated to ensure the optimal exploitation of the bandwidth and to make the required service features available. The configuration of the router is easy with the help of the HTTP Configuration Wizard (for inexperienced users).
