BRL-04AR
Hardware Description
The BRL-04AR Broadband Router may be connected to the Internet or to a
remote site using its RJ-45 WAN port. It may be connected directly to your
PC or to a local area network using any of the four 10/100 auto-sensing
switch ports.
These RJ-45 ports auto-negotiate the operating speed (10/100 Mbps) and
the duplex mode (half/full duplex).
Access speed to the Internet depends on your service type. Full-rate
Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) provides up to 8 Mbps
downstream and 640 Kbps upstream; G.lite (or splitterless) ADSL provides
up to 1.5 Mbps downstream and 512 Kbps upstream; Cable modems
provide up to 36 Mbps downstream and 2 Mbps upstream. However, you
should note that the actual rate provided by specific service providers may
vary dramatically from these upper limits.
Though Internet access speed is determined by the modem type connected
to your BRL-04AR, data passing between devices connected to your local
area network can run up to 100 Mbps over the Fast Ethernet ports.
The BRL-04AR includes LED indicators on the front panel that simplify
installation and network troubleshooting.
