V6100 and V7122 User Guide 21The TP-1610 is offered as a 1-module (up to 240 channels or 8 trunk spans) or 2-module (for 480 channels or 16 trunk spans only) platform. The latterconfiguration supports two TrunkPack modules, each having its own IP address.Configuration instructions in this document relate to the TP-1610 as a 1-moduleplatform and must be repeated for the second module as well.V6100 OverviewThe V6100 is a cost-effective, converged wireline VoIP media gateway utilizing cutting edgetechnology. Intelligently packaged in a stackable 1U chassis, it is designed to interfacebetween TDM & IP networks as a Customer Premise(s) Equipment (CPE) device.Incorporating innovative Voice over Packet technology, the V6100 enables rapid time-to-market and reliable cost-effective deployment of next-generation networks.The V6100 provides superior voice technology for connecting legacy telephone and PBXsystems to IP networks, as well as seamless connection of the IP-PBX to the PSTN. Inaddition to operating as a pure media gateway, the V6100 can also host partner applications(known as the OSN Server) to support applications such as IP-PBX platforms. The V6100 isfully interoperable with multiple vendor gateways, softswitches, gatekeepers, proxy servers,IP phones, session border controllers and firewalls.The V6100 matches the density requirements for smaller locations while meeting serviceproviders' demands for scalability. The compact V6100 modular gateway is extremelyscalable and supports multiples of 1, 2, or 4 E1/T1/J1 spans.The V6100 can support a variety of telephony interfaces. It contains up to 4 digital interfacemodules each with an RJ-48 port. The digital module can be configured as regular E1/T1/J1interfaces, and with up to 1 or 2 paired spans acting as life-line telephone interfaces forswitching to the PSTN in case of power failure or network problems.The V6100 has enhanced hardware and software capabilities to ease its installation and tohelp maintain voice quality. If the measured voice quality falls beneath a pre-configuredvalue, or the path to the destination is disconnected, the V6100 can assure voiceconnectivity by falling back to the PSTN. In the event of network problems or power failures,calls can be routed back to the PSTN without requiring routing modifications in the PBX.Further reliability is provided by dual Ethernet ports and optional dual AC power supply.The V6100 extends its flexibility with additional deployment options. The open platform onthe V6100 offers partners the option to host their own applications (e.g., IP-PBX or callcenter application) using a powerful, low-power consumption processor and hard disks toprovide a complete solution within the V6100 chassis.The V6100 supports various ISDN PRI protocols such as EuroISDN, North American NI2,Lucent™ 4/5ESS, Nortel™ DMS100 and others. In addition, it supports different variants ofCAS protocols for E1 and T1 spans, including MFC R2, E&M immediate start, E&M delaydial / start, loop start and ground start.
