The HX200, as shown in Figure 1 on page 3, is a
high-performance satellite router designed to support
high-bandwidth links with mesh/star capability and QoS features
such as Min/Max CIR together with dynamic alllocation of
bandwidth. With integrated IP features including RIPv1, RIPv2,
BGP, DHCP, NAT/PAT, and DNS Server/Relay functionality,
together with a high-performance satellite modem, the HX200 is
a full-featured IP router. The HX200 enables superior IP
connectivity for a variety of applications including cellular
backhaul, MPLS extension services, virtual leased line, mobile
services and other high-bandwidth solutions.
The HX200 satellite router provides two 10/100 LAN ports with
one being used for local LAN connectivity and one being used for
WAN connectivity. The Ethernet LAN port can be connected via
a straight-through or crossover Cat-5 cable to a single computer
or to an Ethernet hub/switch port.
It is completely self-contained requiring no external PC to host
any functions or software. The software is automatically updated
from the Network Operations Center (NOC).
