Verso NetPerformer SDM-9600

Scalable, multi-service integrated access router for central offices

A high performance convergence platform to be used on GSM, DCME, VoIP or any voice and data network. The SDM-9600 enables network operators to seamlessly integrate telephony and data applications while substantially reducing monthly recurring costs.

High capacity, high performance, high versatility

The SDM-9600 is the flagship component of the NetPerformer products, all of which have been designed to meet the needs of operators with complex distributed networks. The NetPerformer SDM-9600 offers the highest density, capacity, and performance available today and includes an integrated access router for central offices. Designed for modular growth and standards evolution, the SDM-9600 provides complete fault-tolerance and scalability as well as greater processing speeds and bandwidth capacity.

Scalability

A modular, high-capacity format makes the SDM-9600 an ideal solution for the needs of the more demanding sites in a converged network. The SDM-9600, in conjunction with other NetPerformer products enables each individual site to be configured with the appropriate combination of services, performance, and scalability, avoiding unnecessary costs. The SDM-9600 chassis can be populated with multiple blades supporting digital and LAN ports for aggregation and redistribution of voice and data traffic. Using an open architecture platform, it can support up to 80 T1/E1 data/voice digital spans, 2400 channels of digital telephony, or 600 TRXs of GSM A-bis/ter traffic in a single 5U chassis.

Carrier-grade reliability

The SDM-9600 is designed to provide the level of redundancy and fault-tolerant operation that providers must have to ensure uninterrupted service. In addition to dual power feed at the chassis level, each blade support 1:N redundant voice processors and 1:1 overall blade redundancy, delivering high availability for those mission critical applications and revenue generating services. The SDM-9600 also supports alternate routing and can automatically switch to another WAN if needed.

Digital voice support

The SDM-9600 channel density is the ideal platform for Digital Circuit Multiplication Equipment (DCME) applications; either for backhauling traditional telephony or GSM A/E trunks. PowerCell voice support provides greater bandwidth savings than standard based VoIP, over any type of WAN infrastructure. The SDM-9600 also supports standards-based VoIP via the SIP protocol and a wide range of voice codecs, providing interoperability for multivendor as well as mixed private/public networks. The NetPerformer SDM-9600 supports key signaling methodologies and connects to PSTN and legacy PBX units, providing a smooth migration path for legacy telephony equipment to VoIP.

GSM backhauling

The SDM-9600 also provides bandwidth optimization for GSM A-bis and A-ter. The high density of the SDM-9600 makes it ideal for larger BSC/MSC sites serving large number of remote BTS locations and it occupies less rack space.

Leverage the power of convergence

The SDM-9600 efficiently packetizes and compresses voice, fax, modem and LAN traffic, and transports it over packet/cell-based connection-oriented or connection-less networks WAN infrastruc-tures. All traffic entering the unit is prioritized by protocol, then combined for transport over private or public networks. Prioritization functionality is provided by PowerCell®, NetPerformer's award winning, cell-based QoS prioritization technology.

WAN flexibility

The SDM-9600 operates on a variety of WAN infrastructures: serial or digital leased lines, satellite, or packet-based networks such as IP, Frame Relay and ATM. This feature provides network operators the flexibility to choose between the most economical or most readily available network facility and also enables the migration to different network infrastructures without any additional cost.

Enhanced satellite access capabilities

The NetPerformer SDM-9600 platform can also provide satellite-based converged communications. Verso has partnerships with the major satellite vendors providing support for SCPC, TDMA, IP broadband satellite technologies, including Verso's SkyPerformer satellite optimization (Point-to-Point/Multipoint). Carriers can operate a hybrid satellite/terrestrial topology over a single platform, further reducing costs and minimizing complexity.

Network management and reporting

The Verso ACTView® 3000 application is an advanced SNMP-based GUI tool that uses the industry-standard HP OpenView® NMS platform. The application enables the user to manage virtually any other platform from a single network management station, avoiding redundancies and the costs associated with multiple NMS platforms.
