Migrating To An S8700 Media Server - Avaya S8700 Overview Manual

•
Two UPS units
•
Two IPSI circuit packs in each IPSI-connected port network
Voice and data bearer traffic between port networks is carried on a duplex network that is made up of two
Expansion Interface (EI) in each port network. The EIs are cabled with lightguide fiber to either a
duplicated Center Stage Switch (CSS) or a duplicated Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) switch.
See Figure 8, High- or critical-reliability configuration when sending voice bearer over CSS or ATM,
page 21 for an example of a critical-reliability configuration when sending voice bearer over CSS or
ATM.
