The DPX-368 is a full featured modem
designed to meet the critical demands of commercial and
professional applications. The modem provides high throughput
on dial or leased lines - up to 115,200bps, together with
V.42bis/ MNP 5 data compression, V.42 error correction,
system security and full fax capability.
The DPX-368 has been developed to provide a simple cost
effective solution to your Remote LAN Access needs. The
DPX-368 has been designed to meet the critical demands of
commercial and professional applications. The DPX-368 provides
reliable high throughput LAN access capability with the
ease of use of a conventional modem.
DES Encryption
With DES, connections may be secured by using Fixed Key or
Random Session Keys. This ensures that any data passed between
the modems cannot be interpreted by other individuals. An
optional RSA session key system is available if higher levels
of public key security are required.
Client to LAN Ethernet Network Option
The DPX-368 connects directly to your Ethernet UTP LAN to
instantly provide Remote LAN access capability with the
minimum of fuss. Configuration is achieved through the use
of the Serial DTE port on the standalone desktop model or
via the AccessPoint-Manager with the High Density Rackmount
version.
The DPX-368 supports the common PPP (Point to Point Protocol)
for connections to industry standard PPP Client Software
packages, for example, Windows 95 and Trumpet Winsock.
The TCP/IP and IPX LAN protocols are also supported, which
allows you to access your Novell Netware File Server and
Unix LAN-based applications.
LAN to LAN Ethernet Network Option
By connecting an DPX-368 to your Remote LAN (as well as
your Central Site LAN) you can provide a facility for automatic
LAN to LAN dial-up connections. The connections can be established
and terminated automatically without any user intervention.
As well as connecting to another AccesPro34E, the DPX-368
can connect to your existing PPP LAN Access Servers.
Top Performance over Poor Lines
Advanced Digital Signal Processing, on-line rate renegotiation
and adaptive equalisation ensures that the DPX-368 delivers
accurate data over the widest range of phone lines.
High Throughput
Selective block retransmission, V.42bis and MNP 5 ensure
the highest possible throughput and economy for all users
on all lines. The DPX-368 is ideal for high volume traffic
on expensive long distance lines or any application where
fast, low cost error free data transfer is required. Incompressible
files can be sent error free at 33,600bps - even with DES
encryption enabled.
Protect Your System
Password verification and same line callback help protect
your system from unauthorised access. Once configured, the
DPX-368 cannot be maliciously or inadvertently reconfigured
by any interface or line commands. Auto-logon allows users
to bypass the normal password entry sequence - the modems
transparently exchange a password before going on-line.
Top security is achieved by enabling DES encryption.
LAN Access DPX-368 Security Options
To ensure the security of your network is not violated,
the DPX-368 supports user authentication based on the tried
and proven AccessPoint-Security system.
User ID/Password, Challenge/Response and PAP (PPP Password
Authentication Protocol) are supported.
Extensive Diagnostics
Diagnostics include LEDs for on line activity display, local
and remote loopbacks, AT commands or V.54 signals, plus
inbuilt test pattern generation and checking.
Network Management
The stand alone and the rack mount versions are available
with the optional Dataplex Network Management System (AccessPoint-Manager)
for centralised control and reconfiguration.
Performance and Reliability
Manufactured under an IS0-9001/AS-3901 quality control system,
the DPX-368 offers an advanced design with minimum parts
count for maximum reliability.
