The versatile CP-A100 can be placed vertically as well as horizontally, as well as inverted for ceiling mount applications, making positioning of the projector more convenient.

Adding to the user's convenience is the network connectivity of the CP-A100, which allows for simultaneous monitoring and control of several projectors from a remote location. This is particularly beneficial in schools and large corporate environments, where projectors are located throughout a facility and the monitoring of each projector is a time-consuming ordeal. With the benefits of networking technology, a technician can monitor details such as lamp life for each projector from his / her computer. Additionally, the CP-A100's performance stands alone among competitive models. It offers a brightness of 2,500 ANSI lumens, XGA resolution and a 500:1 contrast ratio.

ZyXEL GS-4000 series is an intelligent Gigabit multilayer (L2/L3/L4) Ethernet switch that provides enterprise-class availability, resilient and redundant architecture with OSPF, VRRP, RSTP and port trunking. The GS-4000 series offers many advanced features to make it the preferred choice for real-routing network in the enterprise. Advanced functionalities like QoS, rate-limiting, rule-based access control lists, multicasting support, wire-speed, high-performance IP routing and simplified management software (iStacking) highly improve network operation.

The GS-4000 series delivers wire-speed full-dynamic IP routing, like OSPF and RIP using a hardware-based IP routing engine and sophisticated multilayer operating software. In addition to dynamic IP multicast, the GS- 4000 series supports Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP) and Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping to perfectly handle a variety of datagrams making the ZyXEL GS-4000 series ideal for today's multi-service network environment.

The GS-4000 series works with ZyXEL exclusive iFlow technology, a set of advanced QoS mechanisms, to insure noteworthy service, and smooth operation via a series of QoS processes to prevent customers' networks being negatively impacted by network congestion. With intelligent multilayer capability, the GS- 4000 series offers wire-speed flow control which can classify, police, and prioritize the incoming packets according to predefined QoS policies. In classification, Differentiated Services Code Point field (DSCP) and the 802.1p class of service (CoS) field are identified to assess the priority of incoming packets. Classification and reclassification can be based on criteria as specific as rule-based on IP, MAC addresses, VLAN ID, TCP/UDP port number, on the other hand, for bandwidth management, the GS-4000 series is loaded with powerful traffic management tools. For instance, the GS-4000 series provides eight priority queues per port for different types of traffics, allowing administrators to set rule-based rate limiting which takes full advantage of limited network resources and guarantees the best performance.

The VPN Accelerator Card Plus (VAC+) for the Cisco PIX Firewall Series provides high-performance tunneling and encryption services suitable for site-to-site and remote-access applications. This hardware-based virtual private network (VPN) accelerator is optimized to handle the repetitive but voluminous mathematical functions required for IP Security (IPSec). Offloading encryption functions to the Cisco PIX Firewall VAC+ not only improves IPSec encryption processing, but also maintains high-end firewall performance. As an integral component of the Cisco VPN solution, the Cisco PIX Firewall VAC+ provides platform scalability and security while smoothly working with the services necessary for successful VPN deployments - encryption, tunneling, and firewall.

The Cisco PIX Firewall VAC+ adds Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) hardware acceleration to the Cisco PIX Firewall. Also known as Rijndael, AES provides a better combination of safety and speed than Data Encryption Standard (DES). Using 128-bit secret keys, AES offers higher security against brute-force attacks than older 56-bit DES keys and can use 192-bit and 256-bit keys as well. AES is computationally more efficient than DES and can work at multiple network layers simultaneously. In October 2000 the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) of the U.S. Department of Commerce selected AES as a new encryption technique for protecting computerized information. It is expected to replace DES, which was adopted by the U.S. Department of Defense in 1977.

The Cisco PIX Firewall VAC+, which fits into a PCI slot inside the Cisco PIX chassis, encrypts data using 56-bit DES; 168-bit Triple DES (3DES); and 128-, 192-, and 256-bit AES algorithms at speeds up to 440 Mbps. A Cisco PIX Firewall equipped with a VAC+ can support as many as 2, 000 encrypted tunnels for concurrent sessions with mobile users or other sites. In addition to encryption, the card handles numerous other IPSec-related tasks - hashing, key exchange, and storage of security associations - freeing the Cisco PIX Firewall main processor and memory to perform other perimeter security functions.
