The TelcoBridges Tmedia™ TMG3200 is a carrier-grade media gateway that meets the needs of service providers looking to drive convergence between TDM and IP networks, replacing multiple devices for signaling, connectivity and IVR with a single device. Offering the ability to add capacity and new functionality via field-upgradable modular hardware components and software license upgrades, the TMG3200 media gateway provides the reliability and flexibility that leading-edge service providers require as they augment their convergence efforts. A single TMG3200 media gateway provides capacity of 2,048 voice ports and the flexibility to mix and match TDM and IP services such as SS7, ISDN, SIGTRAN, SIP and H.248 across T1/E1/J1, DS-3 and STM-1 interfaces.

Whether sitting at the network core or the edge, the TMG3200 provides essential media gateway functionality necessary to deliver seamless voice interoperability across TDM and IP networks. Leveraging an integrated media gateway controller—TB Media Gateway— the TMG3200 offers a low footprint approach to extending services such as media gateway, TDM switching, VOIP hairpinning, transcoding, advanced call routing and fax relay. With separate chipsets for media processing and IVR, and signaling performed in hardware, the TMG3200 media gateway provides full non-blocking capability of up to 2048 channels per device.

Offering the industry-leading highest port density and the lowest operating cost for a media gateway in a 1U form factor, the TMG3200 media gateway easily scales as service uptake increases, with expansion cards for IVR, VoIP and TDM. With an average 66% less power consumption than competing products of similar capacity, the TMG3200 media gateway supports the drive by service providers to reduce the environmental impact of their network footprint and increase their profitability and green credentials.

Features & benefits
