1.3 BRIM-W6 OVERVIEW

The BRIM-W6 (Figure 1-1) extends the functionality of a Cabletron MIM

or standalone hub to include remote bridging and routing capability. It

allows remote connectivity using WAN services such as T1, or Fractional

T1.

The BRIM-W6 is equipped with two slots that support Cabletron Systems

Wide Area Network Physical Interface Modules (WPIMs) for WAN

connectivity. WPIMs provide a variety of signal types including

Synchronous, T1/Fractional-T1, and E1/Fractional-E1.
