Description
THIS IS A STATE-OF-THE-ARTS, WORLD CLASS BROADBAND
ROUTER WITH NO EQUALS!
Edimax’s EnduraLINK ER-1088 is the
world first and only 8-WAN Multi-homing Router, and it has the highest
number of WAN ports, and in addition, it is also a fault-tolerant, load
balancing VPN router with an enterprise-class firewall as well. It is the
best solution for any organization such as a wireless ISPs, ISPs,
non-profits, scientific institutes, schools, government institutes &
agencies, and businesses. It makes perfect sense for all enterprise
because it is the most cost effective fault-tolerant bandwidth solutions
available.
How to get the highest bandwidth at the
lowest cost?
The highest
bandwidth is achieved by connecting 8 low-cost broadband links such as
xDSL, cable, satellite, and etc. For example: at current time: (June
2006)

So, with 8
ADSL lines that cost less than $600 per a month you can have a combined
download bandwidth of greater than a 45 Mbps DS3 line which cost over $2500 per
a month. Just purchasing a DS3 router is at least $4000. The best
analogy for the multiWAN is to compare it to a 16-lane super-highway.
Imagine the traffics that a 16-lane superhighway can carry! Similarly,
the total data packets traffics capacity is correspondingly
increased by a 8-WAN data super-highway.
(8 WAN lines bi-directionally is equivalent to a 16-lane)
Replace your costly T1 monthly fee with multiple
WAN Lines and the EnduraLINK ER-1088
The
EnduraLINK ER-1088 "paid-for-itself" in a couple of months by replacing
your expensive T1 or E1 monthly fee with 2 low cost ADSL or Cable Lines.
As the above table indicated, you will get a combined total bandwidth of
12 Megabits up and 1.5 Megabits down as compared to a T1 bandwidth of 1.5
Megabits up & down. You'll also get better performance and non-stop fault
tolerance as well as substantial money savings every
month.
Failsafe, non-stop Internet - no modern Internet enterprises can afford to be down!
With multiple WAN
connections and the EnduraLINK ER-1088, you will get the effective combined
8-WAN speeds for all your LAN users. You will also get a redundant, fault-tolerant, and fail-over
capability to insure that you will have non-stop
Internet access when some of the ISP's link is
down. If your 8 WAN links is spread among 2 or 3 different ISPs, it
would be exceeding rare for all the ISPs to be disconnected
simultaneously. To some businesses this reliable
connection is vital because the downtime of even just a few minutes is
equal to quite a bit of revenue loss. That is why
we named our product EnduraLINK.
