A full range of media gateway solutions

Designed to meet carrier needs from end-to-end -- from full-fledged networking switching solutions to standalone high-compression solutions - the I-Gate 4000 series of media gateways covers the full range of service applications and deployment port densities, offer complete interoperability and support a common set of features and functionality.

I-Gate 4000 PRO: High-capacity media gateway for very high port density and core network applications.

• 16,800 DSOs
• E1, T1, DS3, SMT1, OC-3, Gigabit Ethernet

I-Gate 4000 EDGE: Compact media gateway for small port density and network edge applications

• 496 DSOs
• E1, T1, Fast Ethernet

Both the I-Gate 4000 EDGE and I-Gate 4000 PRO media gateways support:

— A comprehensive set of redundancy and high-availability features for both system and link level, enabling non-stop service provisioning -- maximizing operator competitiveness and continuing revenue-generation capability

— Diverse compression, switching, and enhanced service applications including softswitch-based toll/tandem switching, static trunking over TDM or IP networks, legacy PBX access, and mobile network compression

Outstanding performance, scalability and cost-effectiveness

— Support for multiple codec and compression mechanisms that greatly reduce bandwidth requirements while still ensuring toll-quality performance

— Handling maximum load without loss of performance or impact on service quality

— Low cost of entry, easily and cost-effectively scaling up as traffic requirements grow -- enabling a quicker ROI and minimizing CAPEX

Fully interoperable, seamless integration

— Fully interoperable and standards-compliant

— Operable in both a softswitch-controlled mode for media adaptation and switching in newgeneration multimedia networks, or as a standalone bandwidth optimization/DCME system supporting static trunking applications 

I-Gate 4000 PRO is sold in Germany under the name HI-Gate 4000 PRO.
