Larscom & Lucent Show Interoperable Multilink Frame Relay

Larscom and Lucent Technologies demonstrated a Multilink Frame Relay (MFR) solution that would enable service providers to deliver 3 Mbps (2xT1) or 6 Mbps (4xT1) bandwidth services using either Frame Relay or ATM. Interoperability testing was recently completed demonstrating the compatibility of the Lucent CBX 500 Multiservice WAN Switch with the Larscom 6000 access device for Multilink Frame Relay. The Larscom 6000 is an IP- and Frame Relay-Aware access device for the customer's premise that is compliant with the Frame Relay Forum's (FRF) FRF.12 and FRF.16 standards.


MFR is a standards-based frame transport protocol developed by the Frame Relay Forum.
