The Dialogic® BorderNet™ 2020 Integrated Multimedia Gateway (IMG) enables interworking between IP and PSTN networks via high-density optical, telephony, and Ethernet connections in a compact 1U form factor. The BorderNet 2020 IMG's enhanced Voice over IP (VoIP) density offers the potential for significant reductions in capital and operating expenses when compared to earlier generations of gateways.
Along with providing high density in a small footprint, the BorderNet 2020 IMG handles signaling and media in a single carrier-ready chassis, provides any-to-any voice network connectivity, and can deliver SIP services into SS7, SIGTRAN, PRI, and SIP-I networks. The 2020 IMG also features multimedia border element functions, such as SIP mediation and IP-to-IP transcoding for network-edge applications.
High Density and Versatility
With its high density and versatility, the BorderNet 2020 IMG can help wireless and wireline service providers add new Value-Added Services (VAS) quickly, and provide a clear migration path to an all-IP network. The 2020 IMG is also an excellent option for retail, wholesale, and enhanced service VoIP deployments, as well as contact centers and mobile VAS.
The BorderNet 2020 IMG also offers energy efficiency and hardware components where hazardous substances have been minimized, which can help operators and contact centers seeking to fulfill "green" initiatives.
Easy Management and Fast Maintenance
1U high-density design, element management system, and software licensing that allows in-service capacity expansion make the BorderNet 2020 IMG easy to manage and scale. Its NEBS-3 carrier-ready design uses independent network interfaces to separate transport, signaling, and OAM&P for reliability and enhanced service availability.
Fast maintenance features, such as hot-swappable power supplies, field-replaceable motherboard trays, and graceful upgrades address the flexibility and ease of operation that carriers need and increases reliability in the field.
The BorderNet 2020 IMG also features the Dialogic® Programmable Protocol Language (PPL), which allows rapid implementation of SS7 ISUP variants and other signaling changes.
