• IP WAN Router with Four Integrated E1 DSU/CSUs •

IP•Express•QE1 is a high performance, bandwidth scalable, IP WAN router with 4 E1 ports offering a standards-based inverse multiplexing (N x E1) capability. The 4 E1 ports are able to connect to 4 remote locations or to be N x E1 inverse packet multiplexed to remote locations from 4 Mbps to 8 Mbps. Standards based WAN protocols, PPP, Multilink PPP, and Frame Relay, ensure interoperability. IP•Express•QE1 Brochure in PDF

The IP•Express•QE1is a very reliable, high performance and cost effective IP WAN Router for interconnecting remote LANs and addresses the large market for connectivity in the multi-megabit bandwidth range such as high performance MPEG Video delivery. The Integration of the E1 CSUs provides for a complete solution with a straight forward configuration. It is great for:

• MPEG Video Distribution
• Branch Office Connections
• Education District Networking
• Multimegabyte File Transfers

Inverse Packet Multiplexing
Inverse Packet Multiplexing is a feature of the IPExpress•QE1•IPM. IPM delivers 4 to 8 Megabits of interconnectivity over 2,3,4 Dedicated E1 WANs. IETF approved RFC1990 Multilink PPP protocol bonds multiple E1s into a high-speed virtual link that has built-in redundancy. E1 line fault detection provides resilient connectivity for Mission Critical Interconnects.


High Performance Fault Tolerant Internet Access
Internet Service Providers deploy the IP•Express•QE1 as a customer premise solution for customers that require Fault Tolerant NXE1 multimegabit access to the Internet. Industry Standard Multilink Point to Point Protocol ensures interoperability with the Internet Service Providers Point of Presence solution.

MPEG IP Multicast Streaming Video Delivery
IPExpress•QE1•IPM models deliver MPEG IP Streaming Video over Inverse Packet Multiplexed E1s. The Inverse Packet Multiplexor provides the bandwidth necessary for the delivery of 2 broadcast quality video feeds or to deliver near Contribution quality for a single MPEG Video. IP Multicast is a standard feature of the IPExpress•QE1 and is utilized to distribute MPEG video simultaneously to multiple decoders.

MPEG IP Video Redundancy Switch
REDundant IP Video configuration automatically switches from the Primary to a Secondary Encoder's IP Video Stream for mission critical broadcasts and is available with the IPExpress•QE1•IPM•RED. A one second absence of IP packets from the Primary Encoder results in the switch to the Secondary Encoder. The WAN bandwidth is reserved for a single feed.

IP WAN Router
The IPExpress•QE1 is a great solution for connecting four remote locations to a central site.

MODELS

IP·Express·QE1
 Four E1 ports connect to 4 remote locations.

IP·Express·QE1·IPM
IPM delivers 3 to 6 Megabits of broadcast quality bandwidth over 2,3,4 Dedicated E1 WANs.

IP·Express·QE1·IPM·RED
REDundant IP Video configuration that automatically switches from the Primary to a Secondary Encoder's IP Video Stream for mission critical broadcasts.

IP Multicast is utilized to distribute MPEG video similtaneously to multiple decoders.

Management of the IP•Express•QE1 models is accomplished with a Command Line Interface that is accessed through a Console or Telnet connection. Templates of the most common configuration provide for an Edit and Paste configuration.

Network Security is provided with Full On Source, Destination Address; Port and Flag IP Packet filtering. Interconnectivity is able to be selectively controlled at the network, device and application layers.

Diagnostics
IPExpress•QE1's integrated diagnostic capabilities provide for expeditious fault isolation. The E1 interfaces of the have Bit Error Rate Testors. The BERT capability in combination with the diagnostic test loops provides for E1 physical layer qualification. Packet level diagnostics are accomplished with IP Ping packets that can be sent continuously.

Performance Upgrades
IPExpress•QE1 software upgrades that enhance the performance are available for free by contacting Engage Communication support department. The performance upgrades are loaded by TFTP into the upgrade portion of the FLASH ROMs and the unit is operation during the upgrade.
