Infonet service links ISDN/FR nets
By Tim Greene of Network World
The new service called DialXpress Virtual Enterprise, anables customer sites connected to Infonet's public packet nw via ISDN to reach other customer sites connected by a FR line. It is available in 46 countries.
If a remote corp. site is connected to the nw for less than 4 hrs per day, it costs less to use ISDN than a FR link for that site, according to Infonet.
Infonet previously offered an ISDN remote access service that let users dial out to ISDN-connected sites over Infonet packet nw. But users at ISDN-connected sites couldn't dial in over the Infonet nw to reach sites connected by FR.
Infonet uses a feature of ASND's MAX RA switches in the Infonet nw to signal ASDN's ISDN routers at remote sites to dial in. The destination can be a LAN connected to Infonet by a dedicated or dial-up connection. Infonet phone: 310-335-4700
