Allied Telesis AT-IMG632S/A intelligent Multiservice Gateway

Allied Telesis AT-IMG632S/A intelligent Multiservice Gateway ... machinery control from legacy Narrowband dial-up speeds to state-of-the-art ADSL2 / 2+ Broadband. The AT-iMG632S also gives retailers, home users and manufacturing access to fast Broadband Internet access, high quality IPTV service and low cost VoIP-based telephony.

Both Retail Point of Sale (POS) and security systems commonly have serial interfaces. For remote access, these must be connected to an analog modem. Direct connection of these devices to the AT-iMG632S removes the need for the Modem and enables the serial communication to be sent through the IP network over a secure SSL tunnel. Two serial ports provided by the AT-iMG632S support up to 230kbps throughput; a dedicated algorithm automatically detects the character length (7 or 8 bits).The AT-iMG632S has smart card slot where crypto memories can be plugged in. An iMG certificate able to validate the identity of the device can be stored on a smart card.

The AT-iMG632S 'snoops' IGMP packets intransit allowing simultaneous delivery of different multicast transmissions such different movies or TV channels.This results in high quality, high-bandwidth multiple video streaming without impacting Internet browsing or IP telephony whilst delivering the fast channel change that users expect from video services. MPEG video service management and diagnosis is possible using troubleshooting techniques. Furthermore, video quality can be monitored using the unique MPEG stream monitoring tool.

The AT-iMG632S offers FXS or PSTN interfaces leveraging Voice over IP (VoIP) protocols such as: H.323, SIP and MGCP. VoIP interoperability has been established with major soft switch vendors. An FXO port that is internally microfiltered in the AT-iMG632SA or a nonmicrofiltered ISDN port in the AT-iMG632SB is presented allowing the device to be connected to the PSTN.The FXO port is not seen as a separate connector; it is connected throughout a relay to the first FXS line. If the unit powers off or VoIP becomes unavailable, the phone connected to the FXS line is physically switched to the base band voice channel. The AT-iMG632S allows the connection of modems and faxes to voice interfaces for other business applications in SoHo environments.
