The Mediant
TM
1000 is AudioCodes cost-effective, converged wireline and
wireless VoIP media gateway utilizing cutting edge technology. Intelligently
packaged in a stackable 1U chassis, it is designed to interface between TDM
& IP networks in enterprises or small-scale carrier locations. Incorporating
AudioCodes innovative Voice over Packet technology, the Mediant 1000
enables rapid time-to-market and reliable cost-effective deployment of next-
generation networks.
The Mediant 1000 is based on VoIPerfect
TM
, AudioCodes underlying, best-of-
breed, media gateway core technology for all of its products. The
Mediant 1000 provides superior voice-technology for connecting legacy
telephone and PBX systems to IP networks, as well as seamless connection
of the IP-PBX to the PSTN. In addition to operating as a pure media gateway,
the Mediant 1000 can also host partner applications and serve as an IP-PBX
platform. The Mediant 1000 is fully interoperable with multiple vendor
gateways, softswitches, gatekeepers, proxy servers, IP phones, session border
controllers and firewalls.
Scale Up As Your Business Grows
The Mediant 1000 matches the density requirements for smaller locations
while meeting service providers demands for scalability. The compact Mediant
1000 Modular Gateway is extremely scalable and supports multiples of 1, 2,
or 4 E1/T1/J1 spans, or 1 to 24 analog ports in various FXO/FXS configurations.
The Mediant 1000 will also support mixed digital/analog configurations.
The Mediant 1000 can support a variety of telephony interfaces. It contains
up to 4 digital or up to 6 analog interface modules with 4 ports. The digital
module can be configured as regular E1/T1/J1 interfaces, with up 1 or 2
paired spans acting as life-line interfaces for switching to the PSTN in case
of power failure or network problems. The analog module is available as
regular FXS or FXO interfaces, where 1 FXS line can be used as a life-line
interface for switching to the PSTN.
 Digital  connecting the PSTN or PBX to the IP-network
 Analog FXS  connecting analog phones and fax machines to the IP-network
 Analog FXO  connecting analog lines from the Central Office (CO) or PBX
to the IP network
Seamless Interface with Legacy Enterprise Networks
The Mediant 1000 has enhanced hardware and software capabilities to ease
its installation and to help maintain voice quality. If the measured voice quality
falls beneath a pre-configured value, or the path to the destination is
disconnected, the Mediant 1000 can assure voice connectivity by falling back
to the PSTN. In the event of network problems, calls can be routed back to
the PSTN without requiring routing modifications in the PBX. Further reliability
is provided by dual Ethernet ports and optional dual AC power supply.
Flexible Platform for Partner Applications
The Mediant 1000 extends the flexibility of the Media Gateway family with
additional deployment options. The open platform on the Mediant 1000 offers
partners the option to host their own applications (e.g., IP-PBX or call center
application) using a powerful, low-power processor and hard disks to provide
a complete solution within the Mediant 1000 chassis.
