HUNTSVILLE, Ala., Nov 09, 2005 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
ADTRAN(R), Inc. (NASDAQ:ADTN), the leading supplier of
packet-based integrated access solutions, today introduced two new platforms
designed to simplify carrier IP voice and data service delivery for Small and
Medium-sized Businesses (SMBs). The Total Access 904 and 908 are multiservice
access gateways that combine the voice functionality of ADTRAN's
industry-leading Integrated Access Devices (IADs) with advanced IP routing,
security, and Quality of Service (QoS) features. At the lowest price point in
the market, these platforms allow carriers to expedite deployments of
feature-rich Voice over IP (VoIP), SIP trunking, and Hosted PBX applications.
"The forecasted rapid growth in adoption rates of
next-generation services like VoIP among SMB customers is fueling the need for
the evolution of the IAD into an intelligent, multiservice platform," said Keith
Nissen, senior analyst, In-Stat. "
Total
Access 900 Series platforms address the needs of the carrier by providing
the flexibility to meet a variety of applications, both mixed-mode and IP, with
a single device that leads the industry in terms of functionality and price
point."
"As the leader in the integrated access market, we are
working closely with our carrier customers to help them meet the changing needs
of their networks by offering the flexibility to support both legacy and
next-generation applications cost-effectively," said Tim Saunders, vice
president of product management, ADTRAN Enterprise Networks Division.
"Regardless of the service the carrier is rolling out, whether it is data only,
IP trunking, or Hosted PBX, the
Total Access 900 Series can meet its needs in a single platform that
simplifies installation, configuration, upgrades, and management."
For carriers implementing IP network architectures, the
Total Access 904 and 908 provide the flexibility to support a number of
applications including trunk-side services, like PRI, to accommodate proprietary
IP PBXs and traditional PBXs or phone systems, hosted PBX applications utilizing
IP phones, and line-side service offerings. These devices provide a T1 port for
WAN connectivity, a 10/100Base-T Ethernet port for connection to an Ethernet
switch, a PRI/T1 port for PBX connectivity, and either four or eight voice ports
to support a variety of analog devices. The Total Access 904 and 908 offer a SIP
Gateway, a robust IP router, stateful inspection firewall, advanced QoS
features, IPSec VPN functionality, remote survivability, IP phone provisioning
and management, and call admission control, all within a single multiservice
