INTRODUCTION TO THE NETVANTA 4305
The NetVanta 4305 is a mid-range IP router designed for medium-to-large office connectivity over Frame
Relay or point-to-point (PPP) networks. This modular platform offers a complete solution for access
routing and WAN connectivity in a single, compact package.
The main base unit supports a variety of interchangeable network interface modules (NIMs) and dial
backup interface modules (DIMs).
The NetVanta 4305 base unit includes the following:
•
1U high housing, rack-mountable, metal enclosure
•
Three modular (card) slots (two small, one wide)
•
Two built-in Ethernet ports
The NIMs available in this series provide a variety of WAN connectivity options including the following:
•
56K/64K (DDS)
•
T1/FT1
•
T1/FT1 with DSX-1
•
E1/FE1
•
Dual T1
•
E1/FE1 with G.703 Drop
•
Serial (V.35/X.21)
If needed, an analog modem, ISDN BRI (U Interface) DIM, or ISDN S/T DIM can plug onto the NIM,
providing dial backup capability. Refer to Installing Dial Backup and Network Interface Modules on
page 41 for more details.
