SmartNode 10200 Series User Manual 1 • General Information
EVRC/QCELP, G.728, G.729eg, and iLBC. SN10200 gateways offer independent dynamic codec selec-
tion per channel. This means that it is possible to assign different vocoders to different channels, on a chan-
nel-by-channel basis. The devices can then run all of these codecs concurrently and do so with no impact on
system performance.
SN10200 gateways also provide unparalleled support for Internet-based fax, also known as Fax over IP or
Fax relay, using the T.38 protocol, which is used to carry fax communications over an IP network. (They
also support the T.30 protocol for fax over the PSTN.)
• System Density
SN10200 gateways feature the industry’s highest system density in a 2U form factor. Beside the capital sav-
ings achieved by purchasing less units of equipment, system density also provides operational cost savings in
the form of reduced co-location fees as well as lower power and cooling costs.
• Energy Efficiency
For many, if not most, service providers, the payoff from reducing energy use can be particularly impressive;
typically, for every watt of power required to operate a device, another watt is required to cool it. The
SN10200 media gateways can play a major role in reducing energy costs, with an average two-thirds less
power consumption than competing products of similar capacity.
• Provisioning and Maintenance
For network convergence efforts to contribute positively to revenue and profitability, service providers must
maintain their reputation for uptime and availability during the introduction, operation, and maintenance
of new services. The SN10200 offers OAM&P, an operations, administration, maintenance, provisioning
(OAM&P) solution. OAM&P enables the service provider to perform the initial set-up of the SN10200
media gateway and any subsequent maintenance operations. These range from the simple, such as the col-
lection of statistics and alarms, to the more complex, such as system configuration changes, the addition of
new hardware or software components, and the application of software patches or software upgrades.
SN10200 model codes
The SmartNode 10200 series consists of several models. They differ in the type and number of PSTN inter-
faces and voice channels supported. All models come equipped with one serial console management port, one
Ethernet management port, two 100/1000/Base-T VoIP ports and two 100/1000/Base-T Ethernet ports.
The SN10200 models are listed in table 2.
