AG 5000

Key Features and Benefits

The AG 5000 is a 1U high, free-standing or rack-mountable Access Gateway that
employs three fast Ethernet ports to interface with the router (one for network side)
and the aggregation equipment (two for subscriber side) within the network. It also
incorporates an RS232 serial port for connecting to a Property Management System
(PMS) and for system management and administration, while maintaining one billing
relationship with their chosen provider.
The AG 5000 enables a wide variety of network deployment options for different
venue types. For example:
Allows for flexible WAN Connectivity (T1/E1, Cable, xDSL, and ISDN).
Supports 802.11a/b/g and hybrid networks utilizing wired Ethernet.
Supports key requirements needed to be compliant with the Wi-Fi ZONE™
program.
Allows you to segment your existing network into public and private
sections using VLANs, then leverage your existing network investment to
create new revenue streams.
Enables you to provide Wi-Fi access as a billable service or as an amenity to
augment the main line of business for your venue.
The AG 5000 contains an advanced XML interface for accepting and
processing XML commands, allowing the implementation of a variety of
service plans and offerings.
Offers three user-friendly ways of remote management—through a Web
interface, SNMP MIBs, and Telnet interfaces—allowing for scalable, large
Public access deployments.

Platform Reliability

The AG 5000 is designed as a network appliance, providing maximum uptime and
reliability unlike competitive offerings that use a server-based platform.

them to a designated Web site to securely sign up for service or log in if they have a
pre-existing account.
Allows the provider to present their customers with local services or have
the user sign up for service at zero expense.
Offers both pre and post authentication redirects of the user's browser,
providing maximum flexibility in service branding
