Your Source for New or Used Cisco VG248
Cisco IP Telephony Solutions  Cisco Access Gateways & Digital Gateway VG248 48 Port Voice over IP analog phone gateway
Overview
The Cisco VG248 Analog Phone Gateway is a mixed-environment
solution, enabled by Cisco AVVID (Architecture for Voice, Video and Integrated
Data), which allows organizations to support their legacy analog devices while
taking advantage of the new opportunities afforded through the use of
IP telephony. The Cisco VG248 is a high-density gateway for using analog phones,
fax machines, modems, voice mail systems, and speakerphones within an enterprise
voice system based on Cisco CallManager. It is advantageous to have these
devices tightly integrated with the rest of the IP-based phone system, for
increased manageability, scalability, and cost-effectiveness (see Figure 2).
The Cisco VG248 offers 48 fully featured analog phone lines
to be used as extensions to the Cisco CallManager system in a very compact
19-inch rack-mount chassis.
Key Features and Benefits
Analog phones—Full-feature analog phone connectivity is
needed when the infrastructure (wiring) or application does not support or
require IP phones. Full-featured analog phone lines allow organizations to
deploy IP telephony without having to purchase IP phones for all the users.
Fax and modem—Fax machine and modem connectivity are required
in many locations for business needs, and the Cisco VG248 is the ideal device to
provide the lines for them. Fax machine and modem connectivity allows
organizations to support these legacy devices alongside the New World IP
telephones.
Voice mail—Many legacy voice mail systems require analog and
Simple Messaging Desktop Interface (SMDI) connectivity. Voice mail
support allows support for legacy voice mail systems with Cisco CallManager in
more configurations and with higher reliability than was previously possible.
Investment protection—Customers can continue to use existing
phones, fax machines, and voice mail systems while taking advantage of
IP telephony.
Reduced barrier to entry—Providing a low-cost alternative for
low-end analog phones, organizations can take advantage of IP telephony with a
lower overall investment in this new technology.
