Overview - NetComm NB9WMAXX User Manual

OVERVIEW

Thank you for purchasing the NetComm NB9WMAXX ADSL2+ VoIP Router. NetComm is proud to introduce
this entirely new class of all-in-one device incorporating ADSL2+, VoIP and Wireless in a single compact
unit. The NB9WMAXX is truly a 'broadband communications gateway' that, when attached to the appropriate
ISP services, will enable multiple broadband communications streams to run concurrently into your home or
office. Data and voice services can be delivered and distributed to multiple PCs at the same time, while the
data packets can be managed via 'Quality of Service' (QoS) controls to ensure that priority is given to voice
traffic, or to the traffic of your choice.
The VoIP 'terminal adaptor' capability enables you to connect existing telephones to the device to make
inexpensive or free VoIP phone calls to any destination, while simultaneously providing internet connectivity
for multiple computers.
Let's look at some of the capabilities offered by the NB9WMAXX in brief:
ADSL Broadband
The NB9WMAXX offers the next generation of broadband ADSL technology with ADSL2/2+, which boosts
ADSL's performance significantly, improves interoperability, and supports new applications, services and
deployment conditions.
VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol)
The NB9WMAXX connects one or two analogue telephones to a VoIP service as well as providing a pass
through connection for your existing landline. The two Phone (FXS) ports even allow two separate VoIP
numbers with a VoIP Service Provider (VSP). The PSTN Line (FXO) port provides telephone back-up should
your VSP, ADSL service or power to the NB9WMAXX fail.
Wireless
In addition to fast, standard 802.11g-based wireless, the NB9WMAXX incorporates Broadcom's state-of-the-
art XPress* to radically improve the performance of wirelessly-connected devices.
* Your wireless device must have a suitable wireless card to take advantage of these technologies.
QoS
With the addition of bandwidth-hungry applications to the SOHO/Home network the NB9WMAXX has not
overlooked one of the most important features for a home Internet gateway – Quality of Service (QoS) The
QoS implementation in the NB9WMAXX is extremely sophisticated allowing you to prioritise data on your
network according to rules you make.
