Typical application
The SN5200 enables Universal SIP Trunking and provides a single Integrated Access Device with features like
IP Routing, Redundancy, Security and a SIP registrar for survivability. The Enterprise can use a single conduit
for both its voice and data traffic thus making the most cost efficient use of its resources. By using two SN5200
with VRRP enabled an Enterprise could connect to two ITSP and provide for failover incase the primary SIP
provider trunk has a problem.

Broadband network connectivity integrates with any fixed IP, DHCP or PPPoE service. An integrated 10/100
Ethernet LAN switch, with advanced routing features such as NAT, Firewall/ACL, DynDNS as well as
optional IPSec VPN, fulfills the requirements of demanding network users.
Quality of Service (QoS) features complete the offering with advanced voice prioritization and traffic manage-
ment. Patton’s patent-pending DownStreamQoS™ ensures voice without interruptions even over best-effort
Internet connections.
