Cisco Voice Gateway 200
Key Benefits
The Cisco 2600 series enables businesses to extend a cost-effective, seamless network infrastructure to the branch office with the following benefits:
•Investment protection—Because the 2600 series supports field-upgradable modular components, customers can easily change network interfaces without upgrading the entire branch office network solution.
•Lower cost of ownership—By integrating the functions of channel service unit/data service units (CSU/DSUs), ISDN Network Termination (NT1) devices, firewalls, modems, compression or encryption devices, and other equipment found in branch office wiring closets in a single, compact unit, the Cisco 2600 series provides a space-saving solution that can be managed remotely, using network management applications such as CiscoWorks2000.
•Multiservice voice/data integration—The Cisco 2600 series enables network managers to reduce long-distance interoffice calling costs and enables next-generation applications such as integrated messaging and web-based call centers. Using voice/fax modules, the Cisco 2600 series may be deployed in both Voice over IP (VoIP) and Voice over Frame Relay (VoFR) networks. When used with a packet voice trunk module, a single Cisco 2600 series router can support simultaneous processing of 60 voice calls, as well as routing and other services.
•Enterprise/Provider class solution—Meets the requirements of multiservice enterprises and their managed service CPE providers with high-reliability features, multiple WAN connections, and the ability to migrate from data- only, to time-division multiplexing (TDM) voice and data, to packetized voice and data infrastructure.
For more information about Cisco 2600 series routers, refer to the Cisco 2600 Series Hardware Installation Guide.
