  15. Link Protection – Any to Any IP IP IP ETH Vmux-2120 Vmux-2120 E1/T1 E1/T1 TDM • Redundancy between uplink ports: TDM-A, TDM-B, ETH-A and ETH-B • End-to-end connectivity check based on physical connection and BFD protocol • Priority selection between links BFD – Bidirectional Forward Detection (ref. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bidirectional_Forwarding_Detection)

  16. Vmux-2120Scalability – Port Activation Vmux-2120 can be ordered with only part of the 16 E1/T1 ports activated, and expanded in the future by software license Customer Benefits: Cost saving: no truck rolls for future expansion Easy stock management Fast deployment of additional trunks: Software keys emailed immediately upon order (zero lead time) Unlicensed ports can be pre-configured for future activation

  17. Vmux-2120Port Activation – How does it work EXAMPLE: Customer starts with a fully redundant Vmux compressing 8 T1s, to be expanded in the future to 12 T1s Present: 1 x VMUX-2120/ACR/VC/16T1/8SK (chassis with 16 physical T1 ports, of which 8 are activated) 1 x VMUX-2120-M/VC/16T1/8SK (redundant module with 16 physical T1 ports, of which 8 are activated) Future: 2 x VMUX-2120-LIC/T1/4SK (software key for activating additional 4 T1 ports) Notes: Partial port activation is available for the 16 port version only Software key is linked to the module’s serial number

  24. Features & Benefits

  25. Up to 16:1 voice compression ratio VAD & Silence Suppression Equipped with both TDM & IP uplinks Supports any type of signaling including CAS and CCS Transparent to all telephony features including: fax, modem, CLIP, IVR, MFC, etc. Compact, Scalable and Simple to deploy Maximum reduction of voice transmission costs No bandwidth consumed when channels are idle Seamless migration from today’s TDM networks to tomorrow’s IP networks NO compromise of existing telephony features and NO retraining of staff Minimizes Initial Investment & Collocation Costs Features & Benefits

  26. Advantages over standard VoIP Solutions (for trunking applications) • TDMoIP multiplexing provides higher bandwidth savings (16:1) than any standard VoIP solution • Full signaling transparency ensuring seamless integration with no retraining costs or lost functionality • Provides bandwidth reduction even without migrating to IP networks • Backup between IP and TDM uplinks with the same bandwidth savings • Single compression cycle end-to-end (Super-Tandem) • Better resiliency to packet loss • Supports bandwidth control mechanisms to better cope with situations of bandwidth overflow

  27. Easy to use calculator for case-by-case estimation of compression ratio Bandwidth Considerations • User configurable parameters: • Voice codec used (between 5.3k & 64k) • Packet size (tradeoff between bandwidth & delay) • Packet type (AAL2oMPLS header - smaller than TDMoIP - for TDM networks only) • Application dependant parameters: • Number of compressed voice channels in a single bundle (The more channels, the less header overhead) • Actual silence percentage (typically – 50% in fixed line networks, 35% in cellular networks)

  28. Management Options Vmux Vmux E1/T1 E1/T1 TDM • Management options: • ASCII Terminal • Telnet * • SNMP * • RADview-SC/Vmux * • * - In band or Out of band • - Dedicated RS-232 or 10/100BaseT ports Ethernet Switch/ Router IP • Benefits of RADview-SC/Vmux: • Network topology view • Real-time status update • End-to-end circuit provisioning • Enhanced performance monitoring • User-friendly GUI Switch/Router NMS

  29. Configuration • Configuration of all managed elements • End-to-end circuit provisioning • Remote download of software and configuration files • Performance • Performance counters • Bandwidth Measurement • 24-hr graph display RADview Service Center Vmux Fault • Event log based on SNMP Traps • Filtering/forwarding of events • Real-time update of status based on polling/events • Enhanced diagnostic capabilities including loopback tests • End-to-end circuit monitoring
