Model 3101 Series Overview
Patton’s Model 3101 Series ipRocketLink™ ADSL2/2+ bridge/routers are the perfect choice for users or ser-
vice providers who need triple-play ready ADSL CPE with advanced routing functionality. Based on Interna-
tional Telecommunications Union (ITU) and American National Standard Institute (ANSI) standards
G.992.1, G.992.2, G.992.3, G.992.5 and ANSI T1.413 Issue 2, the Patton ipRocketLink bridge/routers
enable providers to deliver scalable bandwidth, up to 24 Mbps, to the most demanding voice, video and data
applications. The ipRocketLink likewise supports G.Handshaking per ITU G.994.1.
The ipRocketLink is designed specifically to be compatible with the most popular DSLAMs in the market. Just
set the units to their default mode, send them to the remote location and plug them in. The ipRocketLink will
use the ADSL-aware CAC and automatically detect the ATM PVCs and start working.
The ipRocketLink line of ADSL bridge/routers come standard with support for IPoA, PPPoA, PPPoE, and
multi-protocol encapsulation over ATM. Up to eight PVCs can be configured and ATM QoS applied via a
simple traffic class configuration. In addition to supporting standard RIPv1 and v2 routing, the ipRocketLink
can be configured with static routes. Bridging, including Spanning Tree is supported, as well as the ability to
log into standard service provider networks with PPPoE using PAP/CHAP authentication. ipRocketLink rout-
ers support many advanced firewall features including ACLs and intrusion detection with blacklisting of
offenders. Common features such as DHCP and NAT/PAT with application level gateway (ALG) also come
standard.
