The HS-ETH Ethernet Bridge/Router modules connect remote Ethernet LANs to a central Ethernet network, over the Megaplex-2100/2104 E1/T1 link. HS-ETH modules are available with one, two or four LAN interface channels, each with an integral high-performance, remote, selflearning Ethernet bridge or a small IP router. The UTP Ethernet LAN interface conforms to IEEE 802.3.
Communication between HS-ETH modules is over timeslots allocated on the Megaplex E1/T1 main links. The bandwidth for each HS-ETH channel can be selected from 56/64 kbps, up to 1984 kbps on E1 links, or up to 1536 kbps on T1 links.
