Overview
Avaya presents X330WAN, a series of WAN Edge Router expansion modules for
the P330 Stackable Switching System and the Avaya G700 Media Gateway.
X330WAN enables you to connect your Avaya P330 switch to a WAN. X330WAN is
part of Avaya’s Converged Networks Solution that includes IP telephones, data
switches and IP exchanges.
The X330WAN family includes the following modules:
• X330W-2DS1 access router module has 2 E1/T1 interfaces, a single
10/100Base-T Fast Ethernet port, and a Console port.
• The X330W-2USP contains 2 USP (Universal Serial Ports), one 10/100Base-T

An Avaya P330 stack can have X330WAN access router modules inserted in each of
the switches in the stack with an expansion slot. A maximum stack configuration of
10 P334T switches using the X330WAN provides 490 Fast Ethernet 10/100 ports,
and 20 E1/T1 or USP ports.
