MultiFRAD 3000-Series User Guide
Introduction
Welcome to Multi-Tech's new MultiFRAD 3000 series, a Frame Relay Access Device (FRAD) that
encapsulates data streams from the voice/fax channels, data channels, and LAN devices into
frame relay frames. The MultiFRAD 3000 series contains six or ten syncronous or asynchronous
data channels, four or eight Voice/Fax channels, a 10M bps Ethernet port, and a composite link
that connects to a common carrier frame relay network service, private frame relay network, or a
point-to-point network. The MultiFRAD 3000 series also provides additional features of data over
IP and hub capabilities that allow multiple MultiFRAD 3000’s to be connected together, increasing
the number of available data channels.
The MultiFRAD 3000 series has six model numbers that include FR3060 which allows up to six
data channel devices such as multiplexers to be connected to its RS232 data channels, an
Ethernet LAN connection for IP or IPX routing or bridging of other protocols, an RS232 command
port, and a composite link for access to a Frame Relay Network. The FR3100 allows up to ten
devices to be connected, along with the Ethernet port, command port, and composite link
connections. Voice/Fax capabilities can be added to the two base models allowing either 4 Voice/
Fax channels or 8 Voice/Fax channels on either model. The 4-channel model with 6-data
channels is referred to as model FR3060/V4. The 8-channel voice/fax capability with 10-data
channels is referred to as FR3100/V8.
