Chapter 2 System Architecture

Integration

In addition to the application processors manufactured by NEC, the UNIVERGE NEAX 2000 IPS systems also deliver an open architecture for integration with other manufacturers. Interface processors and specifications for communicating with computing devices support this integration. These computing devices enable such service features as network and facilities management, call center applications, call accounting, property management, voice mail, maintenance access terminals, and management information systems for ACD reports and monitoring.

Unified Circuit Card

All the circuit cards for UNIVERGE NEAX 2000 IPS are designed in one size (PN-type), and installed in the PIM. This maximizes the efficiency of slot utilization of the PIM.

High Density Line/Trunk Cards

Major line/trunk cards used in UNIVERGE NEAX 2000 IPS are provided with 8 circuits per card. This allows the physical system size to be compact.

Universal Slot

One PIM provides 12 card slots for Line/Trunk (LT). Also, these card slots can be used for Application Processor (AP) cards without complicated limitation. As this makes easy quotation and installation, more number of AP cards can be mounted in one PIM.

DC/DC Power Supply for –48V

The PIM houses an optional DC/DC Power Supply for the cards which require –48V power such as the CSI card used for interface of Cell Station (CS) of a wireless system. Since this power supply is mounted in the space under the AC/DC power, additional Power Module/card slots are not required.

SN716 Attendant Console

The SN716 Attendant Console connection is available through one twisted-pair cable when using an AC adapter. When using the PN-PW00, one twisted-pair cable is required for voice/data and one pair is required for power from the PW00 to the Console.

Analog/Digital Telephones

The analog/digital telephone connection is available through one twisted-pair cable.

IP Telephones

The IP telephones can communicate with other IP telephones over the LAN, on a peer-to-peer connection basis. The Main Processor (MP) provides call control with an Ethernet adapter card. Voice packets are transmitted between IP telephones over the LAN (not through Time Division Switch). Voice compression of G.729a (8 kbps) and G.723.1 (5.3 kbps/6.3 kbps) is available for these connections.

The IP telephones can communicate with legacy stations and trunks (including H.323 trunks) via an IP- PAD that converts voice packet data to PCM signals. Call control signals are transmitted to the MP over the LAN, while voice packets are transmitted via the IP-PAD. The number of IP-PADs depends on the traffic volume of connections between the IP Enabled Dterm and legacy stations and trunks.
