The Cisco® AS5350XM Universal Gateway offers unparalleled capacity in only one rack unit (1RU) and provides best-of-class voice, fax, and remote-access services. High density (up to 1 Channelized T3 [CT3] of voice over IP [VoIP], low power consumption (as low as 2A at 48 VDC per G.711 CT3), high-density packet voice digital-signal-processor (DSP) modules, universal port DSPs, and session-border-control (SBC) features make the Cisco AS5350XM Universal Gateway ideal for many network deployment architectures, especially co-location environments and mega points of presence (POPs).
The Cisco AS5350XM Universal Gateway (Figure 1) doubles the performance of the Cisco AS5350 and delivers significant memory enhancements to offer high performance and high reliability in a compact, modular design. The Cisco AS5350XM High-Density Packet Voice/Fax Feature Card (AS5X-FC) and DSP Module (AS5X-PVDM2-64) enable higher-density configurations and world-class performance for intelligent packet voice services. The Cisco AS5350XM Universal Gateway also supports existing Cisco AS5350 features, trunk termination, and universal port DSP feature cards in a more powerful chassis to help ensure continuing network investment protection. This cost-effective platform is ideally suited for service provider and enterprise environments that require innovative voice, fax, and data services.
Flexibility To Deply New Services:
Demand for new services can be easily accommodated with the Cisco AS5350XM Universal Gateway, whether the initial business opportunity is voice services over broadband, wholesale voice transport, unified communications, call-center services, IP-enabled interactive voice response (IVR), hosted IP telephony, prepaid calling card, SBC, Common Channel Signaling System 7 (SS7/C7) interconnect, high-volume Internet access, regional or branch-office connectivity, corporate VPNs, or wholesale dial. The flexibility to use the Cisco AS5350XM Universal Gateway in multiple service environments provides unprecedented capital investment protection. It helps ensure that the network can promptly adapt to changes in the business environment and meet the demands of the marketplace for new services.
Cisco AS5350XM Universal Gateway Helps Enable New Cisco Services:
The Cisco AS5350XM Universal Gateway supports a wide range of IP-based, value-added voice, fax, and data services. It helps service providers with existing data networks quickly and easily add voice services to their portfolios, and carriers that offer voice services over existing time-division multiplexing (TDM) networks can expand their coverage more cost-effectively. The Cisco AS5350XM provides the perfect solution for telephony application service providers (ASPs) that want to deploy PC-to-phone, voice portals, voice-enabled Web commerce, and content delivery services. The combination of Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) voice gateway, services platform, and SBC interconnectivity make the Cisco AS5350XM perfect for both IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) and non-IMS deployments. SBC functions provide a network-to-network interface point for billing, security, Call Admission Control (CAC), quality of service (QoS), and signaling interworking. SBC functions operate concurrently with the public switched telephone network (PSTN)-to-IP gateway functions.
The rich set of Cisco IOS® Software features available in the Cisco AS5350XM Universal Gateway helps Internet service providers (ISPs) and enterprise network managers meet traditional dial-in access needs, including Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) and AppleTalk, while supporting the migration to new universal port services.
Cisco Systems® customers worldwide have proven that Cisco AS5000 Universal Gateways provide the flexibility, scale, reliability, and suite of services required to meet market demands.
By providing the industry's broadest product line of intelligent voice gateway and access server products, Cisco makes it easy for customers to select the right starting point for a phased rollout based on revenue generation, without compromising future capabilities.

Your Complete Solution:
The Cisco AS5350XM Universal Gateway eliminates the need for switches and routers to create a POP or "POP-in-a-box" solution. The gateway has nine primary packet voice and universal gateway voice configurations: 2 CT1/ CE1 interfaces, 4 CT1/CE1 interfaces, 8 CT1/CE1 interfaces, 16 CT1 interfaces, 12 CE1 interfaces, and 1 CT3 interface. It also can accommodate 2 CT3 cards for TDM switching and includes an integrated signaling link terminator (SLT) for direct connection to an SS7/C7 signaling gateway.
The Cisco AS5350XM Universal Gateway comes with two 10/100/1000BASE-T autosensing Gigabit Ethernet ports, which are perfect for redundancy and firewall applications. Additionally, two high-speed serial ports are provided to support Frame Relay, Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), and High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) backhaul. All Ethernet interfaces support Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP), and all cards are hot-swappable for carrier-class resiliency. Availability is further enhanced with the optional AC or DC redundant power supplies. The Cisco AS5350XM is the only gateway in this form factor that offers voice, fax, SBC, and remote-access capabilities with these high-availability features.
The Cisco AS5350XM Universal Gateway also supports widely deployed routing protocols, including those generally found in high-end access servers and routers (for example, Border Gateway Protocol Version 4 [BGPv4], Open Shortest Path First [OSPF], Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol [EIGRP], and Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System [IS-IS]). This capability allows service providers and enterprises to deploy the Cisco AS5350XM Universal Gateway as a standalone universal gateway solution.
