voice services. And, using the PacketStar
®
PSAX media
gateways’ unique, high-density multiservice modules,
with up to 24 individual T1s or 3 DS3s per slot, you
can rapidly introduce innovative, high margin services.
With the PacketStar PSAX portfolio, circuit emulation,
frame relay (FR) and ATM traffic can coexist in N x 64
blocks within the same T1/E1 line. You can maximize
circuit utilization by provisioning these protocols
granularly, on a DS0 by DS0 basis, bundled or
unbundled, contiguous or noncontiguous. For
example, if you need to simultaneously deploy three
technologies such as ATM, TDM, and frame relay, only
one module is needed, saving valuable slots and costs.
Inverse Multiplexing over ATM (IMA) is also included
on some multiservice modules to further reduce
required slots while increasing flexibility.
With the Enhanced Router Module, the PacketStar
®
PSAX media gateway family delivers cost-effective
multiservice interworking to IP with QoS in addition
to multiservice layer 2 VPNs. The PacketStar
®
PSAX
product family now delivers complete services
interworking between Ethernet and IP, plus FR, HDLC,
and ATM. This functionality augments services
capability while minimizing capital expenditures.
Reduce network complexity
and simplify operations
The PacketStar
®
PSAX Multiservice Media Gateway
portfolio lets you achieve convergence by collapsing
multiple technologies into a single, scalable platform
that is centrally managed. Parallel networks that
once required separate equipment scenarios can be
consolidated cost-effectively with minimum capital
outlay. Convergence, plus the system’s multiservice
and multimedia versatility, eliminate the need for
multiple switches, reducing network complexity and
simplifying operations. A simpler network structure
also reduces the need for physical channel management
and reduces the burden on core switches.
