NEAX® IPS DMR
(Distributed Model Remote)


The NEAX® IPS-DMR is designed as an IP Remote PIM offering for NEC's NEAX® 2000 IPS product family. When connecting to the host NEAX® 2000 IPS or NEAX® IPS-DM, the NEAX® IPS-DMR provides PBX feature transparency for remote location networking over IP while offering a robust survivability solution and features not commonly found in many of our competitor’s solutions.

The NEAX® IPS-DMR is designed primarily for distributed IP networking but also supports traditional analog and digital trunks for connection to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). The NEAX® IPS-DMR supports up to 128 peer-to-peer IP stations and 40 TDM ports in a single modular chassis. Up to two chassis can be stacked providing maximum capacity of 80 TDM ports while still supporting as many as 128 peer-to-peer IP stations. With 3200 series R6.2 software, each host can accommodate up to 7 NEAX® IPS-DMRs. In addition, up to 255 hosts can be networked via CCIS.

The NEAX® IPS-DMR was designed to minimize hardware requirements by utilizing the same line/trunk cards and application processor cards as the NEAX® 2000 IPS and NEAX® IPS-DM. The NEAX® IPS-DMR uses the NEAX® IPS-DM, PIM (chassis) with a new CPU, the CP31. Offering superior port density, the NEAX® IPS-DMR includes 19" rack mounting, and each chassis only occupies two Rack Units. Designed specifically as an IP Remote PIM application, the NEAX® IPS-DMR cannot be used as a standalone system.

IP Remote PIM

The IP Remote PIM (IPRP) software solution offers an unprecedented networking solution for the NEAX® 2000 product family. The IPRP is a highly flexible software solution that provides telephony feature transparency for all NEAX® 2000 users regardless of physical locations, yet offers local survivability at each of their local sites. The IPRP leverages the lower cost of the NEAX® IPS-DMR platform to provide a very cost-effective distributed converged enterprise-networking solution.

The IPRP solution enables the PBX to provide call handling from a central (main) location. IP WAN can connect all smaller branch offices via their own local PBX processors, creating a converged enterprise voice and data network. Small office sites under normal operation are now able to cost-effectively leverage the call processing, ACD Agents, Voice Mail with Live Record, Unified Messaging and other telephony applications maintained at a central site. In the event of a WAN failure, IPRP enables the remote local PBX processor to provide basic call processing and allows normal business continuity via a back-up PSTN through the duration of the failure.

With the NEAX® IPS-DMR, the IPRP offers a highly survivable branch office networking solution while leveraging the benefit of IP Telephony. It allows companies to extend high availability IP Telephony to their remote branch offices with a cost-effective solution that is extremely simple to deploy and manage.
