2148.0. "need hub900 differentiator" by VAXRIO::ROLF (Vaporware Design Specialist) Tue Mar 28 1995 08:54

    We have the chance to help a customer write an RFP. 
    
    What is/are the HUB900 family's unique features which no other
    vendor can offer at present?
    
    Are we the only vendor offering the "stand-alone" (Onehub) feature? 
    
    Thanks for any help in advance!

    !What is/are the HUB900 family's unique features which no other
    !vendor can offer at present?
    
    technology independent backplane:  other vendors' hubs have so many
    FDDIs or ethernets and you can only run that technology over those
    channels.
    
    no need for an additional management agent that takes up a slot.  it is
    built into the hub and uses agents built into the modules.
    
    
    !Are we the only vendor offering the "stand-alone" (Onehub) feature? 
    
    the only vendor offering the same unit that will work standalone or in
    a hub.
