Lanode today announces that the FRM220-BRI basic rate ISDN fibre optic modems will have their final manufacturing run this autumn. Customers are advised that final orders need to be placed by July 31st, 2024.
Introduced way back in the early 80's ISDN was the first attempt to standardise the transmission of digital voice, video and data. Now its time is perhaps nearing the end. Increasing difficulties in securing components for manufacture and the withdrawal of ISDN services in Europe means that our venerable FRM2-BRI/ST2 is reaching the end of its lifetime too. The FRM2-BRI/ST2 extends a single Basic Rate ISDN (ISDN2, BRI) service over fibre optic cabling. Its ease of set-up and installation have made it the go to product for many applications that involve such transmission - secure video conferencing, BRENT over fibre and complex Red/Black scenarios.
The Products covered by this notice include:
FRM220-BRI-ST2 Multimode ISDN modem card
FRM220-BRI-ST2SA Multimode ISDN standalone AC powered modem
FRM220-BRI-ST2DA Multimode ISDN standalone DC powered modem
FRM220-BRI-ST15 Singlemode ISDN modem card.
Full support, repair and maintenance facilities will remain in place until August 1st 2029.
End of Notice.
