Introduction to TI MultiVOIPs (MVP2410 & MVP24-48)

We proudly present MultiTech’s T1 Digital Multi-VOIP products. The MVP2410 is a rack-mount model; and the MVP24-48 is an add-on expansion card that doubles the capacity of the MVP2410 without adding another chassis. These voice-over-IP products have fax capabilities. These models adhere to the North American standard of T1 trunk telephony using digital 24-channel time-division multiplexing, which allows 24 phone conversations to occur on the T1 line simultaneously. They can also accommodate T1 lines of the ISDN Primary Rate Interface type (ISDN-PRI).

Scale-ability. The MVP2410 is tailored to companies needing more than a few voice-over-IP lines, but not needing carrier-class equipment. When expansion is needed, the MVP2410 can be field-upgraded into a dual T1 unit by installing the MVP24-48 kit, which is essentially a second MultiVOIP motherboard that fits in an open expansion-card slot in the MVP2410. The upgraded dual unit then accommodates two T1 lines.

T1 VOIP Traffic. The MVP2410 accepts its outbound traffic from a T1 trunk that’s connected to either a PBX or to a telco/carrier. The MVP2410 transforms the telephony signals into IP packets for transmission on LANs, WANs, or the Internet. Inbound IP data traffic is converted to telephony data and signaling.

When connected to PBX. When connected to a PBX, the MVP2410 creates a network node served by 10/100-Base T connections. Local PBX phone extensions gain toll-free access to all phone stations directly connected to the VOIP network. Phone extensions at any VOIP location also gain toll-free access to the entire local public-switched telephone network (PSTN) at every other VOIP location in the system.

When connected to PSTN. When the T1 line(s) connected to the MVP2410 are connected directly to the PSTN, the unit becomes a Point- of-Presence server dedicated to local calls off-net.
