Engage Ships Inverse Packet Multiplexor and Router Combination.APTOS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 22, 1999-- Engage Communication, a 10 year veteran in the Wide Area Networking market place, adds Inverse Packet Multiplexing - IPM (1) (Impressions Per Minute) Generally refers to document scanners that scan both sides of the page at the same time. Thus, a scanner that scans at 100 ppm (pages per minute) can provide 200 ipm. See ppm and document scanner. - to the Advanced ExpressRouter and the Advanced IPExpress lines of WAN and Internet Access Routers. Engage's Inverse Packet Multiplexor supports 2 WAN ports at data rates from 56,000 to 2,048,000 bits per second on each port for interconnections of up to 4 MBPS . The Inverse Packet Multiplexor works over Dedicated and Frame Relay A high-speed packet switching protocol used in wide area networks (WANs). Providing a granular service of up to DS3 speed (45 Mbps), it has become popular for LAN to LAN connections across remote distances, and services are offered by most major carriers. technologies and has built-in line fault detection and automatic bandwidth backup. Inverse Packet Multiplexing - IPM - fills in the major bandwidth gap in telecommunication service offerings. The bandwidth gap between T1 - 1.544 MBPS and T3's 45 MBPS. The difference in pricing of a local loop for T1 at $400 and T3s starting point Noun 1. starting point - earliest limiting point terminus a quo commencement, get-go, offset, outset, showtime, starting time, beginning, start, kickoff, first - the time at which something is supposed to begin; "they got an early start"; "she knew from the for 3Mbps of around $4,000 makes aggregation of T1s a very compelling solution. Engage's Advanced IPExpress with 2 integrated T1 DSU/CSUs is targeted at the 3 MBPS window. The potential market for Engage's IPM solution is enormous, according to according to prep. 1.

For most of the ISPs in the U.S., T1 is the circuit of choice because it is stable, reliable, ubiquitous, and proven. There is an installed base of 1.6 million T1 lines, which will double in the next four years, according to a recent report from Alex Brown Alex Brown may refer to:
"The addition of Inverse Packet Multiplexing to our routers enables us to tap into the insatiable demand for affordable bandwidth," said Mark Doyle For the BBC correspondent, see . Mark Doyle is a UK-based nightclub DJ, A&R man and record label owner. In 1999 he founded the record and lifestyle label Hed Kandi for Jazz FM , Engage's president. "Our ISP (1) See in-system programmable. (2) (Internet Service Provider) An organization that provides access to the Internet. Connection to the user is provided via dial-up, ISDN, cable, DSL and T1/T3 lines. customers, that have come to rely upon us for very cost effective T1 Internet access See how to access the Internet. solutions, have been pushing us to provide them with a solution for the aggregation of T1 circuits." Now Engage routers with 2 integrated T1/E1 DSU/CSUs are an ideal choice for ISPs and Enterprises that are encountering overloads on a T1/E1 circuit and are looking for Looking for In the context of general equities, this describing a buy interest in which a dealer is asked to offer stock, often involving a capital commitment. Antithesis of in touch with. a very cost effective and highly reliable way to double the bandwidth. The Fractional T1 support enables service providers to set the data rate at 128k increments. Pricing and Availability The Inverse Packet Multplexor is available now. An upgrade is available for owners of Engage's Advanced Routers. Models are available with 2 integrated T1, E1 or 56/64kDDS DSU/CSUs. Also, the IPM works with external xDSL modems that have V.35, RS232, or RS530 synchronous serial interfaces.
