Cisco 3600 Series CISCO3640 4-Slot Modular Access 10/100 Networking Multifunction Router 47-3204-02. The Cisco 3600 series is a multifunction platform that combines dial access, routing, and LAN-to-LAN services and multi-service integration of voice, video and data in the same device. As modular solutions the Cisco 3640 have the flexibility to meet both current and future connectivity requirements. The Cisco 3600 series is fully supported by Cisco IOS software, which includes analog and digital voice capability, ATM access with T1/E1 IMA or OC-3 interfaces, dial-up connectivity, LAN-to-LAN routing, data and access security, WAN optimization, and multimedia features.

Features and Benefits:

Four new multiport T1/E1 ATM network modules with Inverse Multiplexing over ATM (IMA) and 3 ATM OC-3 network module are now available for the 3600 series multiservice access platforms. These new multiport ATM modules allow service provider and enterprise customers to cost-effectively increase bandwidth, extending multiservice capabilities to remote-branch-office locations through ATM. These network modules support a robust set of ATM features including UBR, VBR-rt, VBR-nrt, and ABR ATM class of services, ATM Forum User Network Interface (UNI) 3.0, UNI 3.1, and UNI 4.0 signaling, Permanent Virtual Circuits (PVCs) and Switched Virtual Circuits (SVCs), and ATM Adaptation Layer 5 (AAL5) to name a few.

The Cisco 3600 series offers high levels of cost effective ISDN PRI concentration. A Cisco 3640 configured with a Mixed Media LAN/ISDN PRI network module and three 2-port ISDN PRI network modules supports up to 186 (T1) or 240 (E1) B channels. This is a powerful and cost effective way to aggregate many branch offices and telecommuters onto one corporate network.

For areas of the world where ISDN BRI services are more widely available or cost effective, the Cisco 3600 series supports many BRI interfaces. Configured with a LAN network module and three 8-port network modules, a Cisco 3640 connects up to 48 B channels. In this way, one system provides high-density BRI interface dial-up support and local LAN and WAN routing connectivity.

With support for up to 48 synchronous serial interfaces on the Cisco 3660, the Cisco 3600 series and its RISC processor are the perfect complement to the Cisco 2600, 2500, 1700, and 1600 series. The Cisco 3600`s higher performance and modular design are appropriate for locations needing support for multiple T1/E1 links or the ability to change configurations in the future.

The three Cisco 3600 models allow new levels of connectivity and performance for branch offices with their scalable size, slot density, and cost. Combinations of network modules provide new opportunities for branch offices needing more than a fixed-configuration solution. The Cisco 3620, for example, provides multiple LAN access server support for asynchronous, ISDN, analog modem and digital modem environments, which complements the Cisco 2500 series access servers. Alternatively, a Cisco 3620 adds multiple LAN capabilities to branch bank environments needing to assimilate legacy serial devices, connecting them all to a high-speed Frame Relay network.
