    Gateway Card, will allow organisations to route both voice and fax communications over digital data networks. The KX-TDA0480, designed to be easily integrated into existing LAN/WAN environments, seamlessly bridges Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) and analogue telephone with digital data networks without interrupting or compromising ongoing data communications.

  • Page 4: Example Network Diagramme

    1.1 Example Network Diagramme Example Network Diagramme The following diagramme illustrates a simple VoIP network connecting Hybrid IP-PBXs at 2 different locations. The IP Gateway Card converts outgoing voice or fax signals into IP data packets for transmission. On the incoming side, it reverses this process and translates the packets back into appropriate voice or fax signals.

  • Page 5: Network Devices And Numbering Plan

    1.2 Network Devices and Numbering Plan Network Devices and Numbering Plan Once the installation of IP Gateway Cards begins, network configuration information needs to be on-hand. The following diagramme illustrates devices found in an IP network. Referring to this example, consult your network administrator to obtain necessary information to configure your own network.

  • Page 6: Numbering Plan Example

    1.2 Network Devices and Numbering Plan Notes • Recommended IP Networks: the IP Gateway Card's quality of performance depends on the type of network in use. For instance, transmission delays due to congestion on the network and inadequate service characteristics of Internet Service Provider (ISP) can both contribute to loss in voice communications.
