Cayman 2E 500 Selected To Enhance DSC's ADSL Service.
November 25, 1998
STONEHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE) Cayman 2E 500
Enables DSC Small to Medium Business
Customers To Leverage A Single
High-Bandwidth ADSL Internet Connection
Into A Local Area Network
Cayman Systems today announced that
Digital Service Consultants Inc. (DSC), will
make high-speed ADSL service more
accessible to its small/medium business
customers by including the Cayman 2E 500 in
its ADSL Service, LAN-access package.
Deploying the Cayman 2E 500 will enable
DSC's small/medium business customers with
multiple computers to leverage a single
high-bandwidth ADSL connection into a Local
Area Network (LAN).
"We have been testing the 2E 500 for several
months with great success. Our customers
want the benefits of high-speed ADSL
access - and they love the ease with which
Cayman's Zero-Configuration(tm) router
delivers it. The plug and play aspect makes it
easier on us as well," said Bill Tidwell, Chief
Executive Officer of DSC. "Implementing the
2E 500 as an easily installable solution, saves
both the customer and DSC time and
energy," Tidwell continued.
DSC's ADSL Service will use the Cayman 2E
500 to connect multiple devices in an office
to an Alcatel 1000 modem and provide users
with a "plug and play " solution for sharing a
single high-speed Internet connection that
uses just one IP address. The Cayman 2E
500 is a Zero-Configuration, dual Ethernet,
Internet access router that enables SOHO
users to share access to high-speed WAN
devices like DSL modems that have Ethernet
interfaces.
"DSC is the innovative service provider in
Georgia working to make high-bandwidth
Internet access affordable to more
companies. This partnership lays the
groundwork for a much wider range of
companies to be able to tap into the
business advantages available through the
Internet.
We are gratified that the 2E 500 has been
quickly adopted as a prime solution by so
many service providers," said Heidi Clark,
President and CEO of Cayman Systems.
The integration of plug & play, Cayman
System's Swift-IP(tm) capabilities and two
Ethernet ports in one package creates a
unique and powerful tool for service providers
that cater to homes and small offices. One
Ethernet port supports PCs on the LAN, the
other Ethernet port plugs directly into the
high-speed modem.
The Cayman 2E 500 uses version 4.4 of
Cayman Systems' network operating
software with Swift-IP. Swift-IP now affords
plug & play setup and configuration to small
offices using Cayman Systems' HDSL1000,
HDSL1001, SDSL1400, ADSL2000, LR700-H
and 2E series of routers. Swift-IP integrates
NAT (Network Address Translation) and DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) to
allow all the users in an office to connect to
the Internet using a single IP address. This
reduces costs for the small office and makes
maintenance easier for the service provider.
