• Integrates corporate traffic (data, voice, fax and LAN) over leased lines, Frame Relay or ISDN networks
• Multiprotocol Frame Relay Access Device (FRAD) and Frame Relay switch
• Minimizes Frame Relay charges by using voice and data multiplexing over a single DLCI
• High quality voice compression using RMP-MLQ voice compression algorithm (scalable voice compression rates of 5.1, 6.4 or 8.3 kbps)
• Enhanced voice switching improves voice quality and reduces operational costs
• Silence suppression is used to save bandwidth
• Traffic prioritization and packet segmentation assures high quality data and voice integration
• Backup capability over ISDN PRI/BRI, Frame Relay or leased lines ensures maximum uptime
• Scalable solution with four chassis sizes:
  • MAXcess-3000 has 12 I/O slots, 4U high
  • MAXcess-3004 has five I/O slots, 2U high
  • MAXcess-300 is a compact, standalone unit with four analog voice or two ISDN voice, and six data ports
  • MAXcess-30 is a compact, standalone unit with two analog voice or one ISDN voice, and three data ports
• MAXcess-3000 and MAXcess-3004 modular chassis support:
  • High speed and low speed data modules
  • Voice/fax modules with analog/digital interfaces
  • Any combination of I/O modules; any data port can be trunk or I/O
  • Optional redundant power supply (MAXcess-3000 only)
• Management support provided by a RADview SNMP NMS application, ASCII terminal, LCD and Telnet

The following table presents all the I/O modules supported by MAXcess-3000 / MAXcess-3004:

MANAGEMENT

• The MAXcess family offers three alternative methods for operating and managing the system:

   

  • ASCII terminal
  • Telnet
  • RADview Network Management System over PC or HPOV

• RADview Network Management System is a Windows-based or HPOV-based SNMP application, which permits configuration, diagnostics and monitoring from a central management station. It features pull-down menus, dialog boxes and color graphics to guide the operator in the execution of selected tasks. Communication with the MAXcess SNMP agent is via a serial SLIP port, or in-band via a Frame Relay port.

• Terminal interface allows configuration, control and error monitoring from an ASCII terminal.

• Telnet is supported allowing configuration and control of the products over WAN or LAN.

Diagnostics

• MAXcess incorporates numerous test features for easy maintenance and rapid fault detection. Upon power-up and during normal operation, automatic self-test and link-test are performed, and all problems are reported to the management system. Alarm information is collected and stored in memory for easy access by the management system.

Software Upgrade

• MAXcess uses FLASH memory to enable software upgrading. A central location can be used for upgrading all remote sites.

MAXcess-3000/3004 MODULES
System Modules

• System modules include:

   

  • CL - Common Logic module
  • PS - Power Supply module
  • Ringer - Ringer-3000R for MAXcess-3000 or RI option for MAXcess-3004, support ringing voltage for connected telephones, via FXS modules.

Note: Power supply redundancy can be achieved by adding a power supply module to the Basic Unit, only in MAXcess-3000).

I/O Modules

• Up to 12 modules can be placed in the MAXcess-3000, and five in the MAXcess-3004. Any combination of I/O modules (voice or data) can be configured in the hub. Both MAXcess-3000 and MAXcess-3004 utilize the same voice or data I/O modules. Each data port of the low/high speed modules can function as a network link integrating voice and data, or as a data I/O port connected to a data device.
  For detailed information, see accompanying inserts.

MAXcess-3000 and MAXcess-3004 Basic Units and the I/O modules should be ordered separately. The Basic Unit includes: Chassis, Power Supply and Common Logic. For ordering information on I/O modules, MAXcess-30 and MAXcess-300, see individual data sheets.
