Vyatta has changed the networking world by developing the first commercially supported, open-source router, firewall, VPN solution to provide an alternative to over-priced, inflexible products from proprietary vendors. Vyatta delivers the features, performance, and reliability of an enterprise-class secure router with the added benefits of flexible deployment options--x86 hardware, blade servers, virtualization-- freedom to integrate applications, and the economic advantages of commodity hardware and components.

Introduce new levels of economics, choice, and control into your network:

Economics: Save 50% or more over proprietary products! Leverage industry standard x86 servers and off-the-shelf components.

Choice: Simplify network deployment by running Vyatta on: Vyatta appliances, x86 hardware, server blades, or common virtualization platforms.

Control: Source code availability and community influence allow for faster feature integration and the freedom to build your own custom solutions.

Vyatta delivers complete, ready-to-deploy, open-source networking solutions [software and appliances] that make it possible for anyone to own an enterprise-class router/firewall/VPN for a fraction of the cost of traditional closed-source, proprietary products. Vyatta solutions offer:

Better value: With Vyatta, you can save 50% or more over proprietary router and firewall products.

Better performance: Vyatta has proven in independent tests that standard x86 hardware can outperform proprietary hardware.

Better scalability: Adding interfaces, memory or functions to your system? Leverage the x86 hardware ecosystem and the Debian application universe to expand your system for less.

Better flexibility: Vyatta's software-base and open architecture allows you to deploy network infrastructure functions as applications in virtualized environments.

The A200 and REMORA cards support up to a total of 24 FXO and/or FXS connections. A single PCI slot host connection for all ports ensures common synchronous clocking for all channels. The base AFT architecture is shared with Sangoma's A101, A200 and A104 cards ensuring proven 3.3v/5v, high performance PCI compatibility.

Like all the Sangoma AFT Series, the A200 and REMORA system is field upgradeable to take advantage of the hardware and software improvements as they become available. Also, the A201 supports Sangoma's echo cancellation and voice enhancement board so that hardware voice enhancement is available for analog as well as TDM voice.

The A101 is Sangoma’s next generation hardware designed for optimum support of data and voice over T1 and E1. Designed to work with Asterisk, and functionally compatible with Digium's T100P & E100P boards, the Sangoma A101 gives you unparalleled flexibility at a great price.

Operational Modes

• Data only:
  • T1/E1 and fractional T1/E1, single channel HDLC per line.
• Voice mode:
  • Supports Robbed Bit Channel Associated Signaling (CAS) and ISDN PRI.
  • Block mode raw bit-stream interface for integration with the Asterisk Open Source PBX/IVR platform.
  • Channelized mode supporting individual DMA into voice timeslots plus onboard HDLC support of PRI channel for soft PBX implementations that can use these features.
• Mixed Voice/Data Mode:
  • Combination of router/PBX functions in one server - Asterisk as an option.
  • Both 8 bit (64kbps per channel) and 7 bit (56kbps per channel) board-level HDLC support.
  • WAN data connection is supported by Sangoma’s standard WANPIPE® routing stack providing certified Frame Relay, PPP, HDLC.

The A102 is Sangoma’s next generation hardware designed for optimum support of data and voice over T1 and E1. Designed to work with Asterisk, and functionally compatible with Digium's T100P & E100P boards, the Sangoma A102 gives you unparalleled flexibility at a great price.
