2. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
The 3rd Generation Total Access 900 Series products are high-bandwidth Internet Protocol (IP)
business gateways designed for cost-effective deployment of up to 60 channels of Voice over IP
(VoIP) services. The analog and digital (T1 robbed bit signaling (RBS) and primary rate interface
(PRI) trunks) voice interfaces perform a gateway function into the service provider's VoIP
network. The Ethernet interfaces typically serve as either wide area network (WAN) termination
or connection points to customer’s local area networks (LANs), and support both traditional data
as well as IP telephony equipment.
The last two digits of the product name indicate the number of on-board analog voice ports. The
Total Access 908 contains 8 FXS ports, the Total Access 916 contains 16 FXS ports, and the
Total Access 924 contains 24 FXS ports or 16 FXS ports plus 8 FXO ports with octal FXO
daughterboard. The units can provision, test, and provide status for any of the voice and data
interfaces. The Total Access 900 Series units are RoHS compliant.
Total Access 900 Series products are built on the ADTRAN Operating System (AOS) platform
and include the AOS built-in IP router and firewall features. The units include a T1 WAN interface
(
NET T1 0/1
), a DSX-1 interface (
DSX-1 T1 0/2
), a VOICE interface (up to 24 foreign exchange
station (FXS) ports or 16 FXS plus 8 foreign exchange office (FXO) ports), a 10/100/1000Base-T

), and a
