GSX9000™ Open Services Switch

Scaling from thousands of ports to millions, the Sonus Networks GSX9000 is ideal for serving large markets and enabling virtually unlimited capacity for large next generation carrier networks. The GSX9000 may be populated with any combination of packet network server (Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet) or circuit network server (DS1, DS3, E1, OC3/STM-1) interface modules for switching traffic.

The GSX9000 sets the standard for voice transport and services systems in a packet network. With robust switching capabilities and services integration, the GSX9000 is the most advanced voice switch on the market today. The GSX9000 operates in three key capacities:

• As a high capacity media gateway, the GSX9000 delivers toll-quality voice over high-density hardware that seamlessly scales in an efficient manner, maximizing cost-effectiveness. The GSX9000 provides carrier-class reliability with a unique internal distributed processing design that optimizes system performance and provides advanced capabilities.
• As an integrated component in the Sonus IMS architecture, the GSX9000 enables even greater advancements in packet voice solutions. Within this framework, the GSX9000 becomes an intelligent voice switch. This distributed approach streamlines processing and data flows within the network to maximize performance and scalability, meeting the needs of even the largest global carriers.
• As a Network Border Switch (NBS), the GSX9000 provides comprehensive IP network interconnect functions, including network security. The GSX9000 can be configured for IP network border switching only, IP-PSTN networking only, or for both. [See Sonus NBS]
