After initial contact earlier this year about a DDS connection into KC for
his ISP "The Packing Shed Limited", Andrew Bevin has now completed the
installation and setup of a new 64K DDS into KC Computer Services.
This ISP had been connected via dial up PPP/v34 modems to Cybernet ISP
in Auckland. Continued growth in number of users and the subsequent
requirement for a higher bandwidth connection to the Internet made this
upgrade necessary.
This DDS was installed on the 12th November, the KCCS end only requiring a 64K timeslot from KC's stacked wideband DDS. The ET card setup is supplied with a "Cisco HDLC" link encapsulation method making connection to KC's Cisco 4500 quite straightforward.
This is the second company/ISP to connect to KCCS using the Emerging Technologies Synchronous Serial controller. Spectel use one of these cards in a PC based Linux system to connect to KC's stacked wideband/Cisco 4500.With the addition of the Packing Shed there are now eighteen ISPs throughout New Zealand connecting to KC's network, either directly to KCCS's stacked wideband DDS, ISDN or via 48K MDDS in Auckland or into KC's routers at Waikato University and Napier.
