System Overview Chapter 2 21

BRI version

BCM50 integrates 2-port BRI S/T trunks for EMEA and Asia Pacific (APAC) markets to give this option to customers who need digital trunking. The analog trunk versions will still be available separately for those customers who require them.

R2MFC MBM support

BCM50 supports the R2MFC MBM in selected Caribbean and Latin America (CALA) and APAC countries. See the country matrix in “The I24 KEM is ideal for Secretary and Health care. Global markets” on page 29.

EU compliant routers M222/252 firmware

BCM50 routers deliver Removal of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) compliancy for network infrastructure, or 5/6 compliancy. This requires new hardware for both the Ethernet router and the ADSL router. The new hardware is based on a common architecture for both routers and is also common to Contivity EU releases.

These new features apply to the M222/252 routers only. A software upgrade will be available for installed M221/251. The following features align to Contivity 2.5 with the addition of VPN client termination support.

VPN Client Termination (new)

Port Restricted Cone NAT

SIP firewall ALG

Nailed Up tunnels

SSH, SSL and Secure FTP

New hardware support for ADSL2+

Client emulation enhancements

Client management privileges

Failover IP assignment for automatic assignment of fail over site IP address

X.509 digital certificates

New DSL version support for ADSL2+

Note: M221/251 refers to the routers shipped with BCM50 1.0 units, and M222/252 refers to the new EU-compliant routers shipping on EU BCM50 1.0 and BCM50 2.0 units.

WAN failover

The new router hardware simplifies WAN failover as well as future management integration through the internal serial connector. The new router also allows support for WAN failover on all BCM50 platforms with M222/252 routers.
