Description:

The SmartNode 5481 Enterprise Session Border Controller + Router is a high performance solution that bridges a wide range of IP PBX products to their service providers ensuring security and a high level of efficiency in the VoIP network. Connecting the Enterprise’s LAN to an Internet Telephony Service Provider (ITSP), the SN5481 creates a single conduit for multimedia components including voice, video and data. Evolving from Patton’s award winning SmartNode 5400 Series, the next generation SmartNode 5481 Series comes now with IPv6 upgradeable hardware.

Through the SIP Back-to-Back User Agent, the SN5481 provides a common interface into the service provider network providing resolution of any differences between the SIP from the IP PBX and the service provider softswitch. Additionally, the SN5481 provides CODEC transcoding for up to 64 SIP sessions insuring the most efficient use of available bandwidth for both voice and data. Reduce WAN-access bandwidth requirements by converting high-bandwidth G.711 calls on your LAN into lower-bandwidth G.723 calls for WAN transport.
