Higher symmetric data rates power office productivity! Small businesses often can maintain competitiveness by using a cost-effective networking solution instead of expensiveleased lines for an online presence. As a substitute for a local leased line, Billion’s BiPAC 8501 / 8501 R2 / 8521 seriesoffers a perfect solution with symmetric transmission so SOHO and SME users can enjoy high-speed SHDSL.bisbroadband services. Users can also access bandwidth-consuming applications such as video conferencing with greaterease and speed than previously. The device supports the latest SHDSL.bis technology with a higher symmetricupstream and downstream data rate of up to 5.7Mbps or 11.4Mbps. The Rate Adaptive feature allows the BiPAC 8501 / 8501 R2 / 8521 series to adjust the data rate automatically according to the quality of the wire connection. The Quality ofService feature ensures a smooth net connection for inbound and outbound data with minimal traffic congestion. TheBiPAC 8501 also supports IPSec VPN for users to create secure data communication between two or more sites. RichFirewall security features such as SPI, DoS attack prevention and URL Content Filtering are also integrated, providingusers with unparalleled access protection.

Benefits

High-speed Internet Access with 2 / 4-wire SHDSL.bis
The BiPAC 8501 / 8501 R2 / 8521 series complies with the latest SHDSL.bis technology standards for worldwidedeployment and supports a symmetric data rate of up to 5.7Mbps / 11.4Mbps. With SHDSL.bis technology, the BiPAC 8501 / 8501 R2 / 8521 series allows office users to enjoy high-speed symmetric bandwidth and access multimediaapplications such as FTP sharing, video conferencing and real-time audio with greater ease and speed than ever before.

Smooth, Responsive Net Connection
The Quality of Service (QoS) feature helps users to manage their bandwidth and prioritize data transfer effectively. Itgives full control over the passage of any type of data, ensuring latency-sensitive and bandwidth-consuming applicationssuch as video conferencing, customer information or FTP sharing, can movethrough the router at instantaneous speed,even when experiencing heavy use. The speed for inbound and outbound data passed through the router can becontrolled to ensure that users do not saturate bandwidth with browsing activities.

Firewall Security with DoS Prevention and SPI
Besides having a built-in NAT natural firewall feature, the BiPAC 8501 / 8501 R2 / 8521 series also provides advancedhacker pattern-filtering protection that can automatically detect and block Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, such as IPSpoofing, Ping of Death, etc. The router is also built with Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) to determine whether a datapacket should be allowed to pass through the firewall to the private LAN.

Virtual Private Network
The BiPAC 8501 supports embedded Virtual Private Network (VPN) protocols for users to establish private encryptedtunnels over the public Internet.
