There are three very popular simulators on the market. The Adtran 550 or 800, Teltone, and Arca Emutel.
The Adtran is what is used in the CCIE lab and it is also the most expensive. It is modular and very reliable. The Teltone and Arca have two ports. I prefer the Arca because you can configure the ports as S/T or U. This is something the other two can't do. I've had an Arca and the Adtran and dollar for dollar I think the Arca is the best product. It is limited to two ports, but for testing this is all you should need. Firmware upgradeable and multiple switch type support. They have a sales office in San Francisco and they are very responsive. It will set you back $1500 - $2000 but you can resell it close to purchase price when done. They hold their value pretty well. -----Original Message----- From: James [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, November 08, 2001 2:36 PM To: Jim Brown Subject: RE: isdn simulation [7:25713] Jim Thanks for the info. That's what I was afraid of..I managed to mimic a t1 with back to back csu and was wondering If isdn works the same way. I was looking at the ccie lab book and it had an adtran box. --- Jim Brown wrote: > This is the big stickler.
