SP201™ Signaling Gateway

The SignalPath™ 201 (SP201) is an advanced signaling protocol converter designed to facilitate interoperability between incompatible communication networks. The SP201 enables a seamless interface between in-band and out-of-band networks, and between out-of-band networks and other out-of-band networks.

Different types of communication protocols, both in-band and out-of-band, exist globally. One country could have up to six or seven different protocols simultaneously in use within its networks. The SP201 breaks down the communication barriers presented by these different protocols and enables the flow of information across any network.

Not only can you increase your potential to connect to a larger portion of the world market, but you can also eliminate charges you may be currently paying to one or more companies for network connections. This means more revenue in your corporate pocket.

 

EXTENSIVE PROTOCOL SUPPORT
The following protocols are available, as well as a wide variety of custom variants:
• R1, R2, DTMF
• SS7 (ANSI), C7 (ITU-T)
• ETSI PRI ISDN, NI2 ISDN
• Custom protocol variants

SUPERIOR MAINTENANCE AND DIAGNOSTICS
• Multiple maintenance features enable quick and cost-effective resolution of network problems.
• Trace functionality is available to aid in trouble- shooting configuration and network problems.
• Visual and dry contact alarms allow for remote and local monitoring.

COMPACT CHASSIS DESIGN
• The SP201 features a compact 1U height designed for budgeted space, with a capacity of up to 4 E1 or T1 trunks for the customer with low-end requirements.
• Chassis-based, the SP201 is designed specifically for today’s high standards in the communications environment.

OTHER PRODUCT FEATURES
• Standard connections (RJ48, BNC)
• Up to 4 E1 or T1 trunks (full duplex, 8 ports)
• Up to 120 DS0s per chassis
• Dynamic bi-directional µ-Law/A-Law T1/E1 conversion
• 19 in. (48.26 cm) rack-mountable chassis
