Model 4520 & 4110 Series Getting Started Guide 2 • Applications overview Introduction Patton’s SmartNode Media Gateway Routers deliver the features you need for advanced multiservice voice and data network applications. They combine high quality voice-over-IP with powerful quality of service routing functions to build professional and reliable VoIP networks.
Model 4520 & 4110 Series Getting Started Guide 2 • Applications overview Application—Analog line extension over IP A virtual analog line can be created using an FXO and FXS model (see figure 9). The complete signaling and media (voice, fax, or modem) of the analog phone line is extended over IP. This enables a PBX analog extension line to be extended to a home office or satellite office.
Model 4520 & 4110 Series Getting Started Guide 2 • Applications overview Application—Private line automatic ringdown (PLAR) A private hot-line can be created by using two FXS models back-to-back (see figure 11). These can be found in use as courtesy phones at ATM’s, information kiosks, and emergency assistance pedestals. In this applica- tion, when one handset is picked-up, the remote handset immediately begins ringing.
With these additional fea- tures the SmartNode 4520 series can add Internet access and data networking to any of the SmartNode 4110 Series applications described previously. The following sections show some typical combined voice- data applications.
Model 4520 & 4110 Series Getting Started Guide 2 • Applications overview Application—SOHO off-premise extension For a SOHO/telecommuter, the SmartNode 4520 Series router can provide an off-premise extension to the corporate network (see figure 14). Along with the analog line extension features, the SmartNode provides Internet access and VPN connectivity to the main office.
2 • Applications overview Application—Single-phone PSTN and VoIP access The SmartNode 4520 Series with a combination of FXS and FXO ports can be used to make and receive calls via PSTN and Internet calling services over the same telephone handset (see figure...

Model 4520 & 4110 Series Getting Started Guide 3 • Hardware installation Planning the installation Before you start the actual installation, it is strongly recommended that you gather all the information needed to install and setup the device. See table 4 for an example of what pre-installment checks you might need to carry out.
Model 4520 & 4110 Series Getting Started Guide 3 • Hardware installation Installation checklist The installation checklist (see table 4) lists the tasks for installing a SmartNode 4520 or 4110 Series router. Make a copy of this checklist and mark the entries as you complete each task. For each SmartNode 4520 or 4110 Series router, include a copy of the completed checklist in your site log.
Model 4520 & 4110 Series Getting Started Guide 3 • Hardware installation Site log Patton recommends that you maintain a site log to record all actions relevant to the system, if you do not already keep such a log. Site log entries should include information such as listed in table Table 5.
Model 4520 & 4110 Series Getting Started Guide 3 • Hardware installation Location and mounting requirements The SmartNode router is intended to be placed on a desktop or similar sturdy, flat surface that offers easy access to the cables. Allow sufficient space at the rear of the chassis for cable connections. Additionally, you should consider the need to access the unit for future upgrades and maintenance.
Model 4520 & 4110 Series Getting Started Guide 3 • Hardware installation Installing an interface cable on the router’s FXS and FXO interface ports The gateway comes with at least two FXS or FXO analog ports—or a combination of FXS and FXO ports—(see figure 16) located on the back of the router.

Model 4520 & 4110 Series Getting Started Guide 4 • Getting started with the SmartNode Introduction This chapter leads you through the basic steps to set up a new SmartNode and to download a configuration. Patton SmartNodes can be used for a wide variety of IP-based network applications. To support and ease the configuration of the SmartNodes configuration, templates for the most important applications are available on the Patton server at www.patton.com/voip.
Model 4520 & 4110 Series Getting Started Guide 4 • Getting started with the SmartNode 1. Configure IP address Power connection and default configuration First the SmartNode must be connected to the mains power supply with the power cable. Wait until the 'Run' LED stops blinking and lights constantly.
