1 WAN Access
The AR1200 functions as the egress routers of enterprise branches and provide flexible access methods to support remote network connections. AR1200 meets various access requirements, including leased line, Ethernet, xDSL, 3G, and WLAN. This saves deployment and maintenance costs and provides a large value to customers. The fixed 100M Ethernet interfaces of AR1220V, AR1220W and AR1220VW support the PoE function in compliance with IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at; therefore, the AR1220V, AR1220W and AR1220VW can provide power for powered devices (PDs), such as IP phones. An 802.3at interface provides more than 30 W power, ensuring power for large-power PDs.
2 High-Quality Voice Service
As a voice gateway for enterprise networks, the AR1200 can function as an IP PBX or SIP gateway.
Figure 1. IP PBX application
The AR routers have built-in PBX, which supports the enterprise main number, IVR, and bill query functions to enhance corporate image and improve enterprise communication efficiency. And also the AR1200 can be located in a branch to provide the intelligent dialing function.
Figure 2. SIP gateway application
The AR1200 integrates voice, fax, and IP services. When providing voice services for enterprise users, the AR1200 functions as the SIP access gateway of a branch to transform phone signals into VoIP signals. The AR1200 uplink interfaces are connected to the IMS/NGN network to allow any media including phones, handsets, and computers to communicate at any time.
