SelectNet™ Technology Safety Net
Quality of service is virtually guaranteed.
Tenor BX
’s built-in patented SelectNet
™
Technology
provides a “safety net,” which virtually guarantees that each call going VoIP will not only be routed
successfully, but will deliver high voice quality.
SelectNet monitors the IP network performance for VoIP calls. If the performance characteristics
become unacceptable—according to the delay, jitter, and packet loss specifications you configure—
the
Tenor BX
will switch the call to the PSTN automatically and transparently. The Tenor continu-
ously monitors your data network for jitter, latency and packet loss, and transparently switches cus-
tomer calls to the PSTN when required.
Easy Connect to Console
Plugging a serial cable between the unit’s RS-232 port and your PC’s console port, will allow local
unit management. Through the console connection, you are able to assign an IP address. In addition,
if you are directly connected to the unit, you are able to configure the unit via
Command Line Inter-
face (CLI).
Powerful System Monitoring
There are many different ways to monitor the health of the unit, including LEDs and alarms. LEDs
appear on the front of the unit. The LEDs light up according to operations and alarms the system is
experiencing.
Through the
Tenor Monitor
and the
Command Line Interface (CLI)
you can view a list of active sys-
tem alarms, as well as view an alarm history. Each alarm indicates the unit’s operational status.
