Building on more than 30 years of experience, innovation and customer service, REDCOM announced major enhancements to the REDCOM High Density Exchange (HDX), the new REDCOM HDX Version 4.0.

The HDX is an advanced Class 4/5 softswitch and media gateway powered by TRANSip®, REDCOM’s VoIP technology suite that provides an innovative IP communications solution. TRANSip integrates key IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) elements in one single platform, including a call manager, media gateway and media gateway controller.

The HDX Version 4.0 offers enhanced OpEx-reducing and revenue-generating features and capabilities highlighted as follows:

  •     SIP based VoIP capabilities: Increased from 1,000 to 2,000 SIP subscribers (per shelf). If Multi-Service Access Nodes (MSANs) are used for access, up to 2,000 subscribers are supported by each HDX shelf.
  •     Increased Timeslots: From 512 to 2,048 timeslots per shelf. This allows existing HDX users to increase the trunk capacity by a factor of four.
  •     SS7/C7 S3P density doubled: In fully associated mode, the S3P board in HDX Version 4.0 supports four distinct SS7/C7 links. No new hardware is required and no change in the S3P boards is needed.
  •     Centrex feature: Allows service providers to generate revenue by offering hosted PABX services to businesses/government, but without an additional PABX expense. This moves the business customers’ costs from CapEx to OpEx, and is a popular revenue generator. Centrex works for both analog and IP subscribers.
  •     SNMP Monitoring: Support for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) simplifies network management, outputting standard message formats when something out of the ordinary is recognized.

This cuts staff workload, and thus reduces OpEx.

  •     Other enhancements: There are many enhancements to make the technician’s life easier. The CRON feature allows certain jobs to be scheduled at particular times; trunk maintenance by group means you can make changes across an entire group, instead of on a port-by-port basis.

Powered by REDCOM’s exclusive TRANSip IP technology suite, the HDX offers a remarkable level of interoperability (including industry standard SIP telephones), T1, E1, ISDN (PRI/BRI), Euro ISDN (PRI/BRI), MF/R1, MFC R2, GR-303, V5.2, C7/SS7, SIP, IPv4 and IPv6. The HDX also supports the Fax over IP (T.38) and modem over IP (V.150.1) protocols, permitting end instrument interoperability between VoIP and TDM.
