About the FrameSaver DSL Unit

July 2000
An advanced SLM and reporting feature set can be activated on command with
the SLV key. In the base configuration, comprehensive Layer 1 and 2
instrumentation allows service providers to isolate, diagnose, and correct
problems remotely from their NOC. FR NSPs can expect fewer truck rolls and
faster service turn-up times. FrameSaver DSL carries forward the end-to-end,
nondisruptive loopback capabilities found in all FrameSaver products, allowing
quick verification of circuit operation from customer premises to customer
premises. Continuity and latency can be verified prior to cutover or any time
thereafter.
When the SLV key is remotely activated, additional historical reporting capabilities
are activated. Service level performance reporting in compliance with FRF.13 is
possible.
Since FrameSaver DSL operates with other members of the FrameSaver product
family, DSL, DDS, T1, E1, NxT1 or T3/E3 circuits can be mixed on the same
customer network. This hybrid circuit approach meets the practical needs of the
service providers in advance of 100 percent DSL geographic coverage, and
allows FR NSPs to partner with the most cost efficient access providers for any
location.
Working in concert with the Hotwire GranDSLAM and the Hotwire ATM SDSL
card, quality of service control spans the entire network eliminating the
uncertainty of best effort network designs. CBR, VBR-rt, VBR-nrt, and UBR are
supported.
