ACT Networks� SDM-9500 multi-service integrated access device is a modular voice and data solution for the corporate central site, and the highest capacity member of the NetPerformer family � a suite of products that has been optimized for the needs of complex, distributed enterprise networks. Typically these networks include a wide variety of data and telephony requirements, with various sites needing differing amounts of functionality, density and performance.

The SDM-9500 chassis can be populated with serial, LAN and analog and digital telephony ports for aggregation and redistribution of all types of traffic. By packetizing and compressing voice traffic, then delivering it with data over a Frame Relay or IP network, the SDM-9500 allows companies to save money on their monthly telephony service. PVC bundling and switching also saves money on monthly service fees, by eliminating the need for a fully meshed PVC architecture.

The SDM-9500 unit can support up to 240 digital voice channels along with Ethernet and serial ports. PBX connections are made via T1 or E1 connectors, and the serial ports support SNA serial data or Frame Relay connectors. Analog voice ports are supported, with up to 64 E&M (Types I, II and V), 32 FXS or 32 FXO interfaces per chassis. Fractional T1 and E1 WAN channelized connections are also supported.

All voice and data entering the unit is prioritized by protocol, then combined for transport over a single Frame Relay connection over private or public networks. This functionality is provided by PowerCell � ACT Networks� award-winning, cell-based prioritization technology.

The SDM-9500 is upgradable to future ATM interfaces.


FEATURES & BENEFITS
Integrated voice and data � in a modular, high-capacity format, makes the SDM-9500 an ideal solution for the needs of the regional or central site in a converged network. The SDM-9500, in conjunction with the rest of the NetPerformer product line, allows each individual site to be configured with just the right combination of services, performance and scalability, avoiding unnecessary cost.

Any-to-any voice switching � integrates the disparate phone systems of individual sites. This eliminates the need for consistency among sites, saving cost and increasing flexibility.

Support for modem and fax � enables the SDM-9500 to integrate and support all of the telephony needs of today�s distributed network, reducing costs. Furthermore, the SDM-9500�s serial port density and key aggregation features, unmatched by competitors, reduce line costs, PVC requirements and equipment expenditures. 

Digital voice support � with 240-channel capacity, along with support for key signaling methodologies, the SDM-9500 connects to the world�s most popular PBX units.

Very high system capacity � with support for 240 digital or 64 analog voice channels, the SDM-9500 can address the needs of even the largest sites in today�s enterprise network.

The SDM-9500 supports PowerCell � ACT�s award-winning technology for voice and data integration and prioritization. This allows the entire network to operate at optimal performance for all supported traffic types.

SNMP-compliant MIBs and graphical management � through ACTview 2000, including integration with Hewlett Packard�s OpenView for Windows95/NT, let the SDM-9500 be managed using today�s most popular and universal network management paradigms.

Adherence to standards � lets the SDM-9500 seamlessly integrate with any public network, and ensures compatibility with leading Frame Relay switches
