VISM-PR
Supported models: MGX 8850 (PXM1E/PXM45), MGX 8850/B (PXM1E/PXM45), MGX 8880
The VISM-PR, in combination with a Cisco MGX switch, enables telephone calls on conventional
time-division multiplexed (TDM) voice circuits to be transported over ATM packet-switched and
VoIP networks.
The VISM-PRs provide toll-quality voice, fax, and modem transmission and efficient utilization of
wide-area bandwidth through industry standard implementations of echo cancellation,
voice-compression, and silence-suppression techniques.
The VISM-PR and Cisco MGX switch combination provides an interface, or voice gateway, between
conventional TDM networks and packet-switched networks (see
Figure 2-36
The switch connects to the packet network through use of the switch's processor switching modules
(PXM45 or PXM1E). The processor switching modules communicate with a VISM-PR through the
switch midplane cell bus.
When the VISM-PR is combined with a back card, a card set is created.
