POTS / VoIP

Today, voice over IP (VoIP) is one of the biggest applications that an access edge serves. VoIP is a technology that allows individuals to use the Internet as the transmission medium for telephone calls (predominantly voice) by sending voice data in packets using Internet Protocol rather than the traditional circuit-switched networks that form the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). The main drivers of this revolution are the consumers who are choosing this “lower-cost” alternative voice technology over traditional services provided by the incumbents and the great availability and widespread adoption of broadband internet access.

The iAN8KB1000 and B120 offer multiple solutions and utmost flexibility for providing VoIP services. In a high density MSAN configuration, a common resource card can be used to efficiently provide VoIP services. For high density DSL configuration requiring a few line powered VoIP interfaces, the iFXS module offers a “gateway on a card” option.
