G150 Media Gateway
The Avaya G150 Media Gateway is an H.323 media gateway that is managed by a server
running Communication Manager software. The G150 Media Gateway is a high-performance
converged telephony and networking device that sits in a small branch location. The G150
Media Gateway is designed for very small branch offices with four to 20 users. The G150 Media
Gateway provides local trunk and telephone exchange and data networking.
The G150 integrates seamlessly with a remote server running Avaya Communication Manager,
Release 3.0 or later, call processing software. The remote server can be one of the following
servers:
● DEFINITY Server CSI
● DEFINITY Server SI
● S8700-series Media Server
● S8500 Media Server
● S8300 Media Server in a G700 Media Gateway configuration
Note:
Note: The S8300 Media Server running in a G350 Media Gateway does not support the
G150 Media Gateway.
The G150 Media Gateway provides an effective way to connect IP phones, analog phones, and
trunks at a remote site to a Communication Manager server. The G150 Media Gateway
provides full Communication Manager functionality and features to the remote site either
through a WAN or LAN using the IP protocol.
Note:
Note: The G150 Media Gateway uses the basic hardware and design of the IP Office
product. However, unlike the IP Office, the G150 Media Gateway usually serves
as an H.323 gateway in accordance with the Communication Manager Remote
Office group. As such, the Communication Manager media server manages the
G150 Media Gateway. The G150 Media Gateway operates as a stand-alone
gateway only when it enters survivable mode.
