About the Aastra CNX

Overview

The Aastra Conference Network Switch (CNX) is a high-quality, state-of-the-art, voice-conferencing switch for small and medium enterprise conferencing. It mixes traditional circuit-switched telephone calls (TDM) and packet Voice-over-IP (VoIP) calls within the same conference, initiated from either a channel within Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Primary Rate Interface (PRI) lines, or from its VoIP ports using Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and/or H.323 signaling.

The Aastra CNX has four T1/E1 ports that allow up to 30 participants and 15 active conferences (30-port unit), and are upgradable to either 60 participants and 30 active conferences (60-port unit), or 120 participants and 60 active conferences. It supports permanent and scheduled (temporary) conferencing, with or without a moderator. Conference booking and invitations are made via the web interface.
