GDC TMS-3000 Advanced
Internetworking Platform
When deployed with General DataComm’s Office Communications Manager (OCM),
the TMS-3000 is unparalleled in combining branch office traffic onto a single
backbone. The broad range of standards-compliant wide area interfaces, ranging
from low speed connections through 56/64 Kbps narrowband services, fractional
T1/E1, fully channelized T1/E1 and ISDN, allow network designers to select the
most appropriate available services to meet bandwidth and budget requirements.
The ability to concentrate
traffic from hundreds of remote locations, combined with broad application
support, makes the TMS-3000 the perfect choice for streamlining access into the
backbone network from branch offices.
Overview
General DataComm’s TMS-3000, the core of the TMS (Transport Management System)
product family, is a high capacity internetworking platform designed to
efficiently manage all types of communications. Connections between Local
Area Networks (LANs), traditional data applications, videoconferencing and voice
communications are consolidated to provide a streamlined, highly integrated
network. Applications formerly supported over separate LAN, data and voice
networks are now effectively integrated for simpler, more cost effective
operation. Integral to the TMS-3000 are support for such varied
requirements as SNA traffic requiring predictable response times,
videoconferencing, and voice traffic. As corporate networks become
increasingly vital business assets, management becomes increasingly important.
The TMS family is supported by GTS, a PC/XENIX-based network management system.
Reduced Equipment Needs
The TMS-3000 replaces multiple service connections and a proliferation of
equipment at backbone locations. This, combined with consolidated access to
branch offices, translates directly into immediate cost savings.
The broad range of applications the TMS-3000 supports eliminates the need for a
variety of equipment. Instead, the TMS-3000 allocates bandwidth for many
services, providing routing and management functions.
Consolidates Branch Office Traffic As information becomes an increasingly
important business weapon, effective, economic and reliable connections to
smaller branch offices becomes strategically necessary. The TMS-3000 is a
powerful platform combines LAN, voice, video, and other data traffic from
hundreds of branch offices over a full range of services, from narrowband to
T1/E1 or satellite. Using any of these services, General DataComm’s OCM-2000,
which is specifically designed for branch office applications, can be
concentrated through the TMS-3000.
Flexible Network Topology And System Configurations
The wide variety of services that can be used with the TMS-3000 provide network
planners with complete flexibility. Point-to-point, delta, star, or fully meshed
topologies can be designed to support requirements ranging from T1/E1 timeslot
interchange and drop and insert functions to voice compression.
High Efficiency Multiplexing
The TMS 3000 provides for aggregate interfacing into the
byte-oriented public network, thus facilitating access to services provided by
the DACS-based network and enabling direct PBX connections in support of voice
applications. To ensure low nodal delay and maximum bandwidth usage to T1/E1
environments, the TMS 3000 can also be configured to employ a highly
sophisticated version of bit multiplexing.
Called High Efficiency Multiplexing (HEM), this technique is much more efficient
than many subrate methods, achieving better than 99% efficiency. HEM allows more
channels to be transported between network nodes, provides minimum end-to-end
delays and results in excellent response times.
