Verso Verilink^® 8500 Series

Integrated access router offering maximum performance with superior convergence capabilities

Award-winning compression technology with an integrated access router that supports the deployment of converged voice, data, and video communications to maximize Quality of Service, reliability, and performance.

Extend the power of convergence across your networks

The 8500 Series are Integrated access devices (IADs) ideal for service providers looking to expand their service areas and offer small to medium-sized businesses a high-quality voice and data service over SHDSL.

Flexible and scalable

The 8500 series consists of access products available in two models: a base model supporting VoATM only and an "S" version that supports VoATM and VoIP in a single device. Both the base and "S" units are available in models equipped with 4 and 8 derived voice lines and a 10/100 BaseT interface for high-speed data connections. The 12, 16 and 24 port versions come standard as "S" versions.

With models available supporting 4, 8, 12, 16, or 24 POTS ports and a full range of integrated features, the 8500 offers toll quality voice and high-speed Internet access over a single copper pair. Additionally, Verilink's IADs deliver robust features such as routing, bridging, NAT, DHCP, and support for MGCP and SIP — all in one unit.

Interoperability

The 8500 Series delivers high-quality voice and data over a single pair SHDSL line, making it ideal for both the international and North American markets. The 8500 uses integrated circuit technology that allows easy internationalization through software control of line impedance and ring frequency. Features such as Emulated Loop Control Protocol (ELCP) and interoperability with a wide range of DSLAMs and voice gateways giving service providers the freedom to choose an infrastructure device based on what they need.

Subscriber Value

The 8500 is particularly valuable to a carrier's subscribers because the integrated firewall and router eliminate the need to purchase additional hardware. With Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) and Network Address Translation (NAT), the 8500 automatically generates unique addresses for different workstations. This allows subscribers to ensure the heightened security of hidden internal addresses without purchasing additional costly IP addresses. Additionally, remote diagnostics, provisioning, and easy upgrades are critical benefits to services providers since they dramatically simplify the deployment process and eliminate the need for costly truck rolls.

Proven Reliability

Above all, the Verso Verilink 8500 offers superior reliability and field proven success, both critical elements to service providers today. Verso Verilink's IADs are designed to meet Class 5 call completion rates of 99.999% and provide voice quality that is virtually indistinguishable from toll quality.
