AudioCodes Mediant 1000 Quad T1/E1 Span SIP Gateway

Характеристики

The MediantTM 1000 is AudioCodes’ cost-effective, converged wireline VoIP media gateway. Intelligently packaged in a stackable 1U chassis, it is designed to interface between TDM & IP networks in enterprises or small-scale carrier locations. Incorporating AudioCodes’ innovative Voice over Packet technology, the Mediant 1000 enables rapid time-to-market and reliable cost-effective deployment of next-generation networks.

The Mediant 1000 is based on VoIPerfect™, AudioCodes underlying, best-of-breed, media gateway core technology for all of its products. The Mediant 1000 provides superior voice-technology for connecting legacy telephone and PBX systems to IP networks, as well as seamless connection of the IP-PBX to the PSTN. In addition to operating as a pure media gateway, the Mediant 1000 can also host partner applications and serve as an IP-PBX platform. The Mediant 1000 is fully interoperable with multiple vendor
gateways, softswitches, gatekeepers, proxy servers, IP phones, Session Border Controllers and firewalls.

Scale Up As Your Business Grows
The Mediant 1000 matches the density requirements for small locations while meeting enterprises and service providers’ demands for scalability. The compact Mediant 1000 Modular Gateway is extremely scalable and supports multiples of 1, 2, or 4 E1/T1/J1 spans, 4 to 20 BRI ports or 1 to 24 analog ports in various FXO/FXS configurations. The Mediant 1000 also supports mixed digital/analog with media processing capabilities such as conferencing, play/record configurations.

The Mediant 1000 can support a variety of telephony interfaces. The digital module can be configured as regular E1/T1/J1 interfaces, with up to 1 or 2 paired spans acting as life-line interfaces for switching to the PSTN in case of power failure or network problems. The analog module is available as regular FXS or FXO interfaces, where 1 FXS line can be used as a life-line
interface for switching to the PSTN.

Interface Modules:

• Digital (E1/T1/J1) – connecting the PSTN or PBX to the IP-network
• Analog FXS – connecting analog phones and fax machines to the IP-network
• Analog FXO – connecting analog lines from the Central Office (CO) or PBX to the IP network
• BRI – connecting to PBXs or the PSTN
  

SAS - Stand Alone Survivability for Service Continuity
Customers who connect to centralized IP-Centrex services, as well as branch offices of enterprises who use a centralized IP-PBX server may face a survivability challenge. Stand Alone Survivability (SAS), supported in the Mediant 1000 is based on the SIP B2BUA (Back to Back User Agent) functionality, and enables the backup of SIP clients such as SIP IP and Soft Phones in the case of a connectivity failure with the centralized SIP server.

Seamless Interface with Legacy Enterprise Networks
The Mediant 1000 has enhanced hardware and software capabilities to ease its installation and to help maintain voice quality. If the measured voice quality falls beneath a pre-configured value, or the path to the destination is disconnected, the Mediant 1000 can assure voice connectivity by falling back to the PSTN. In the event of network problems, calls can be routed back to the PSTN without requiring routing modifications in the PBX. Further reliability is provided by dual Ethernet ports and optional dual AC power supply.

3rd Party Application Platform
The Mediant 1000 extends the flexibility of the Media Gateway family with additional deployment options. The open platform on the Mediant 1000 offers partners the option to host their own applications (e.g., IP-PBX, call center, conferencing and messaging applications) using the OSN (Open Solution Network) Server platform, including a powerful processor and hard disks to provide a complete solution within the Mediant 1000 chassis along with rich SIP gateway features.

Features:

• Employs AudioCodes VoIPerfect™ technology for outstanding voice quality
• Scalable “pay-as-you-grow” modular architecture
• Rich offering of digital (E1/T1/J1), analog (FXS/FXO), and BRI interfaces
• Cost-efficient for low density gateways
• Life-line fallback to PSTN in case of power failure or network degradation
• PSTN fallback for assured connectivity
• Internal OSN Server for hosting 3rd party application
• An ideal match as a platform for IP-PBX
• Media processing and conferencing option
• Stand Alone Survivability (SAS) for service continuity
