Cisco AS5400 Series
Universal Gateways
Cisco AS5400 Series Universal Gateways
offer unparalleled capacity in only two rack
units (RUs) with universal port data, voice,
wireless, and fax services on any port at any time.
High-density (up to 1 CT3), low power consumption (7.2A at 48 VDC per CT3), and
universal port digital signal processors (DSPs) make Cisco AS5400 Series universal
gateways ideal for many network deployment architectures, especially colocation
environments and mega points of presence (POPs).
The Cisco AS5400 Series consists of two models, the Cisco AS5400HPX and the Cisco
AS5400. The gateways share the same architecture; the primary difference is the
processing capability of the two platforms. The AS5400HPX provides enhanced
performance for processor intensive voice and fax applications.
Cisco AS5400 Series support a wide range of IP-based value-added services such as
high-volume Internet access, regional/branch-office connectivity, corporate virtual
private networks (VPNs), mobile wireless solutions, long distance for Internet service
providers (ISPs), international wholesale long distance, distributed prepaid calling,
Signaling System 7 (SS7) interconnect, and enhanced voice services.
