1000 MSBG Multi-Service Business Gateway
The Mediant
TM
1000 MSBG is an all-in-one multi-service access solution
for Service Providers offering managed services and distributed
Enterprises. This multi-service business gateway is designed to provide
converged Voice & Data services for business customers at wire speed, while
maintaining SLA parameters for superior voice quality.
The Mediant 1000 MSBG is based on AudioCodes’ VoIPerfect best-of-breed
Media Gateway technology, combined with Enterprise class Session Border
Controller, Data & Voice security elements, Data Routing, LAN Switching and
WAN Access.
Best-of-Breed Enterprise Class Media Gateway
The Mediant 1000 MSBG is based on a highly interoperable Media Gateway
which supports a mix of 1-4 E1/T1/J1 Spans, 4-20 BRI lines and 4-24
Analog FXS/FXO interfaces. Enhanced dialing plans and voice routing
capabilities along with SIP to SIP mediation, allow Enterprise customers
to enjoy the benets of SIP Trunking services and IP based Unied
Communications, as well as exible PSTN and legacy PBX connectivity.
Data Routing and WAN Access
The Mediant 1000 MSBG offers Data Routing capabilities by providing
static routing and dynamic routing protocols such as RIP/OSPF and BGP.
In addition, the MSBG supports a selection of WAN interfaces providing
exibility in connecting to Service Providers.
SBC (Session Border Controller) and Security Services
AudioCodes’ Mediant 1000 MSBG is designed as a secured VoIP and Data
platform. Enhanced Media Gateway security features include SRTP for
media, TLS for SIP control, IPSec for management, and other additional
features. Data Security functions include integrated Stateful Firewall,
IDS/IPS, SSL for remote user access and site to site VPN. A fully featured
Enterprise class Session Border Controller provides a secured voice network
deployment based on a Back-to-Back User Agent (B2BUA) implementation.
Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE)
AudioCodes Mediant 1000 MSBG supports enhanced IP Quality of Service
(QoS) enforcement and Quality of Experience (QoE) Monitoring. Leveraging
a BroadSoft PacketSmart embedded agent - a SaaS-based lifecycle
management solution, the Mediant 1000 MSBG enables service providers
and multi-site enterprises to assess networks, certify VoIP deployments,
and measure, monitor, track, and help optimize the QoE of their VoIP services.
The PacketSmart solution is either offered as a public cloud service or within
the customer’s data center in a private cloud deployment. AudioCodes’
Mediant 1000 MSBG also supports enhanced IP Quality of Service (QoS),
including Ethernet frame tagging (802.1P), IP packet marking (Diffserv),
and trafc shaping.
Survivability Services
Customers served by a centralized SIP-based IP-Centrex server or
branch ofces of distributed enterprises may face a service continuity
challenge. The SAS (Stand Alone Survivability) functionality enables
internal ofce communication between SIP clients, along with PSTN
fallback, in the case of disconnection from the centralized SIP
IP-Centrex server or IP-PBX.
Value-Added Services by a 3rd Party Application Platform
AudioCodes’ Mediant 1000 MSBG extends the exibility of the Multi-Service
Business Gateway with a built-in Open Solution Network (OSN) Server \
module, an Intel processor based server, by hosting a variety of 3rd party
applications (IP-PBX, Call Center, Conferencing and more).
In addition, an advanced DSP based Media Processing Module (MPM)
enables the implementation of media processing services such as
announcements, recording, IVR, conferencing & transcoding.
