Integration into a LAN/WAN, Toll Bypass

The building blocks of a SmartVoice VoIP Gateway

Integration into a LAN/WAN

WAN Internet

Frame Relay

A SmartVoice gateway works with all popular transmission technologies including Cable/DSL, Frame Relay and FDDI (Fibre). Within a data network environment, your SmartVoice gateway sits behind a modem/router, and your firewall needs to be “VoIP aware”.

Router/Firewall

FDDI

The SmartVoice Gateway operates in two modes:

Router Mode (default): the LAN and WAN are on different subnets and Network Address Translation (NAT) occurs twice through the SmartVoice gateway and the router.

Bridge Mode: if speed is an issue for remote users, bridge mode can be used where devices are treated as though connected directly to the router/switch.

One of the key applications for a SmartVoice Gateway is toll bypass – ideal for a business with offices in multiple cities. For example, a business has their head office in Sydney and branch offices in Brisbane and Melbourne

					Application 1 – Inter-Office Communication:
					The offices can ring each other for free over the VPN and eliminate long
Router					distance charges for everyday communication

					Application 2 – Long distance calling to external numbers
					The Brisbane office wants to call an external phone number in Melbourne – the
					call is routed to the Melbourne SmartVoice gateway over the VPN and then

PSTN

A business with an existing analogue PBX can use a SmartVoice Gateway to add Internet Telephony services to the phone system without the need to replace any equipment. The SmartVoice unit simply integrates with the PBX and acts as a “gateway” for routing calls from a phone extension through to an Internet Telephony Service Provider. This provides your business with the ability to make calls through either a regular telephone service (PSTN) or an Internet Telephony service. Most importantly, the business retains all of its phone functions managed by the PBX and is transparent to all users.
