SMC Networks has launched of three new routers-the SMC7901BRA2, with one
Ethernet and one USB port; the SMC7904BRA2 with four Ethernet ports; and the
SMC7904WBRA2 with four Ethernet ports and 802.11g wireless capabilities. The
three ADSL2+ Barricade modem routers, are priced at S$89, S$119 and S$159,
respectively.
Based on a new chip set, the SMC ADSL2+ Barricade routers combine an ADSL2/2+
modem, router, a one-Ethernet/one USB port or a 4-port 10/100 LAN switch, and a
Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) firewall with ample support for key service
provisioning and end user requirements. And, the SMC7904WBRA2 adds 802.11g
wireless access for cable-free connectivity.
For end users, there are additional features such as Wi-Fi multimedia in the
wireless version of the product and support for Diffserv (differenÂtiated
services) for IP. For service providers, the inclusion of ANNEX M support allows
the voice portion of a connection to transmit upstream data at up to 3.5MB,
while ANNEX L support increases the geographical reach of ADSL connectivity past
the current 5km barrier. To help reduce implementation and ongoing management
costs for ISPs, SMC also developed an optional software module to allow service
providers to take advantage of the TR-069 WAN management protocol.
