Multichannel Port Adapters
Multichannel networking provides the flexibility to connect
a central site via leased lines or Frame Relay to many
remote sites with a wide range of speed requirements, all
over a single interface. Instead of requiring multiple,
central site router ports and external DSU/CSUs for each
remote site leased-line or Frame Relay access line,
multichannel networking enables enterprise networks to
use the service provider infrastructure to combine
multiple lines into a single connection. "Multichannel"
refers to the ability to support individual DS0 (64 kbps)
channels, as well as T1/E1 circuits or combinations of
both. The multichannel port adapters for the Cisco 7500
and 7200 reduce equipment costs and management
complexity, shrink required rack space, simplify sparing,
and enable users to better manage WAN costs. They
eliminate the requirement for external DSU/CSUs to
convert leased lines into serial interfaces, and require far
fewer router ports than traditional solutions.
