CISCO 700 FEATURES AND BENEFITS
-
Internet access for multiple users over one ISDN line
The Cisco 700 series allows multiple PCs to access the
Internet simultaneously, without the need to share a single
PC with an Internet connection or rely on server-based
hardware and software. A single Cisco 700 series can make
everyone in the office more productive.
-
Affordable Internet connections for Small/Home Offices
With the Cisco 700 series theres no need to install a
separate ISDN card in every PC to provide Internet access
to new users and no need to have multiple ISDN lines or
multiple Internet access accounts. The Cisco 700 series
includes everything you need for fast access, without need
for costly added hardware or software in a dedicated PC or
central server. And when you want to give Internet access
to new users just plug them into your hub or the Ethernet
port on the Cisco 700 series - no additional hardware or
configuration is required.
-
High-Speed Internet Connections
Unlike ISDN cards, the Cisco 700 series does not steal
performance from a PCs main processor or add work for your
central server. Fast call set up with automatic dialup
provides quick, automated connections to the Internet and
online services. And Cisco 700 series Internet access
devices include throughput-boosting data compression so
users can browse the Web quickly and receive faster
downloads.
-
Integrated CAPI support for optimal performance for
European markets
The Cisco 700 series is designed to take full advantage of
popular European ISDN services. Integrated support for
common application programming interface (CAPI)
applications provides access to services such as faxing and
online banking and a range of leading Internet service
providers.
Cisco 700 series Internet access devices are available with
one-user or five-user RVS-COM Lite licenses, for access to
all RVS-COM applications and CAPI applications. And since
the CAPI 2.0 driver is built into the Cisco 700 series
there is no need to purchase separate software for your
server.
CAPI is an application programming interface standard used
to access ISDN equipment connected to basic rate interfaces
(BRIs) and primary rate interfaces (PRIs). Using a Cisco
700 series with RVS-COM Lite software provides a truly
shared network environment and other benefits including:
Soft fax (for analog and digital lines) for use with
software such as AVMs Fritz!32, Symantec WinFax Pro, and
RVS-COM Lite 1.6: Soft modem for e-mail and Web access to
Internet service providers such as T-Online and CompuServe
File and Euro-File Transfer Electronic banking and shopping
with German T-Online Third-party CAPI-compliant
applications. For further details on the CAPI standard
visit www.capi.org
Cisco 700 series Internet access devices are available in
several configurations. For a simple connection of your PC to
an ISDN service the Cisco 761M provides a single WAN port and
a single Ethernet port. The Cisco 775M provides a single WAN
port, four Ethernet ports (integrated hub), and two analog
telephone interfaces that allow standard telephones, fax
machines, and modems to share the ISDN line. These analog
telephone interfaces eliminate the need for multiple
telephone lines and expensive ISDN telephones. They also
support supplementary telephone services such as call
waiting, call hold, call transfer, call forwarding (Sweden
and Finland) and three-way conferencing.
