S8500 Media Server
The Avaya S8500 Media Server Platform is a new simplex Linux-based server running Avaya
Communication Manager (CM) software that will replace the DEFINITY SI and S8100
processing platforms for smaller sites and for customers who do not require a duplicated server
complex.
The S8500 system supports the Avaya MCC1, SCC1, CMC1, and G650 Media Gateways. The
Avaya G700 and G350 Media Gateways are also supported, provided that there is a TCP/IP
connection between the media gateway and a C-LAN circuit pack located in a MCC1, SCC1,
CMC1, or G650 Media Gateway. The S8500 has the capacity to support up to 64 port networks.
Up to 3 MCC1 port networks can be directly connected. Even though the server capacity
supports up to 64 port networks, the first release supports up to 400 stations (80% IP).
The S8500 Media Server allows for a seamless migration from DEFINITY SI, CSI, R, and
S8100 platforms. However, the S8500 will not support traditional circuit-switched Center Stage
Switch or ATM Port Network Connectivity.
