Description

Broadband Networking is the lifeblood of corporate communications, with many options available now and even more coming. As networks become more versatile, equipment deployed today must be flexible enough to grow into these new configurations.

The P32mxi is a modular 32-channel voice/data Broadband Access Device that can be deployed in today's existing networks while offering inexpensive upgrades for future networks. Small (7.7" L x 13" W x 1.75" H) and lightweight (5.4 lbs), the system was specifically designed for customer premise operation.

The system supports dual T1/E1 ports, 32 analog FXS/FXO/DPT/DPO ports, SNMP management, Windows TM -based Graphical User Interface, a full-featured TCP/IP router with an embedded stateful firewall, 10/100 Base-T Ethernet port, MGCP Voice over IP support, with simultaneous operation of TDM, ATM, and IP. The system also includes an integrated V.35 interface, true sine-wave ringing generator, and built-in battery charger with programmable maintenance cycles. A wall or rack-mountable battery backup system providing up to 8 hours of backup power is also available.

Helping to push functionality to the Edge of the Network, the Versapath software feature of the P32mxi can intelligently route calls over the lowest-cost link in the network. For Carriers, this helps offload nonrevenue generating calls (911, 800 numbers) to a local Central Office while providing either standard Voice or integrated Voice and Data services. For the Enterprise, routing local calls at the branch office saves bandwidth that can be used for critical data applications. And as packet voice networks grow, the P32mxi will be ready for them with Voice over ATM and Voice over IP capabilities. With the Advanced Channel Bank software feature installed, the P32mxi can perform Voice Activity Detection (VAD) type Answer and Disconnect Supervision.

This is extremely useful for a network operator wanting to terminate Tier-1 traffic on their network. With dual T1 or E1 modules installed, Answer Supervision can be performed at the network hub, allowing the operator to use inexpensive channel banks at each termination.

With one system that can be a simple T1/E1 Channel Bank to integrated Voice and Data Multiplexer to total Broadband Access Device, the P32mxi is the ultimate device for any Network Edge deployment, allowing ILECs, IXCs, CLECs, ISPs, and VARs to offer their small-to-medium sized customers one device that protects their technology investment as network needs change.
