It is not a PC or router with voice boards. The gateway utilizes high performance, low power consumption DSPs and a dedicated packet engine. These components reduce bandwidth requirement, minimize delay, and speed up packet delivery, allowing the gateway to deliver superior, unsurpassed voice quality. The compact PCI chassis allows front service and rear cabling, which make the gateway easy to install and maintain. Furthermore, all gateway boards are hot-swappable.
Hot swap reduces down time and minimizes service disruptions.
