The branches, according to their user capacities, can use different models of Huawei eSpace U1900 series unified gateways as local voice gateways. These local voice gateways support local regeneration. U1960 at the headquarters and the local voice gateways at the branches can connect to the PSTN using narrowband and broadband trunks. They can also connect to multiple types of terminals, including SIP phones, integrated access devices (IADs), analog phones, and fax machines, to provide a rich array of voice services for users.
U1960 supports two deployment modes to ensure a highly reliable IPT solution: local two-node clustering and remote disaster recovery.
