Two removable drive bays enable additional hard drive storage capacity.

The Samurai Express is Case Communications' 2U router for border, edge and co-locations routing and VoIP applications. The 2U chassis includes PCI Express expansion slots.

The Chassis has a locking front door, with two removable drive bays to support applications like Web caching and VoIP gateway/auto-attendant than can benefit from adding a hard drive to our routers. The chassis supports options for redundant AC or redundant -48v DC power supplies and its design will require all wiring to be connected inside the rack at the back panel. The Samurai Express has one x 16 PCIe slot, one x 4 PCIe slot and two PCI slots. The two PCI slots reside on dedicated PCI buses, enabling the capacity of two PCI buses.

The Samurai Express uses Linux which provides support for NAT, Firewall, VPNs, Quality of Service (QoS), VLANs, VRRP Failover, dynamic routing, packet filtering, bridging, peer-to-peer traffic control, lawful intercept, VoIP gateway Web filtering with Netsweeper, and more. The distribution also leverages ImageStream's powerful and scalable 'Inetics' driver component architecture. Inetics supports WAN protocols including PPP, Cisco HDLC, Frame Relay, ATM and best-in-class E1/T1 solutions that run Any Port, Any protocol. Inetics even simplifies trouble shooting for LAN and WAN connections with real-time port status and performance monitoring.

The Samurai Express can be used as an Internet gateway, and in the network core or edge. It delivers superior performance and reliability in a 2U package that works where most Cisco 2800, 3800 and 7200 routers are used.

The Samurai Express is Case Communications lowest cost router for applications requiring redundant power including high-speed multi-homed networks, DSL aggregation and a wide range of other mid-range routing applications.
