Headquartered in Japan, their North American headquarters are in Bothell, Washington, a suburb of Seattle. , a global provider of secure IP/Ethernet access solutions and an industry leader in the deployment of IP Triple Play networks, today announced the AT-iMG726MOD, a new Gigabit intelligent Media Gateway (iMG). The iMG726MOD continues the highly successful line of modular gateways from Allied Telesis. Increased bandwidth capacity for HDTV (High Definition TV) A set of digital television (DTV) standards that offer the highest resolution and sharpest picture. Although some HDTV sets are available in standard (rather square) screen sizes, the overwhelming majority of sets are wide screen, which eliminates delivery The iMG726MOD has been designed for the bandwidth needs of Triple Play delivery today and tomorrow. A choice of modular WAN modules can be attached with either 100Mbps active single fiber, GEPON GEPON Gigabit Ethernet Passive Optical Network GEPON Geoscience Education and Public Outreach or 1Gbps single fiber bi-directional optical connections. "Triple Play customers continue to consume more bandwidth. With the advent of 10+ Mbps Internet services, multiple HD multi-channel DVRs throughout the home, it's possible to consume a 100Mbps connection," said Bill Allen, Vice President, Service Provider Sales and Operations, Network Service Providers. "Allied Telesis has stepped up and now offers 100Mbps and 1Gbps in the same platform." Maintains Allied Telesis' Evergreen philosophy Since the new iMG726MOD can support the existing HPNA See HomePNA. and 2xT1 LAN (Local Area Network) A communications network that serves users within a confined geographical area. The "clients" are the user's workstations typically running Windows, although Mac and Linux clients are also used. modules as well as the 100Mbps active single fiber and GEPON WAN modules from the highly successful iMG6x6MOD family, no previous capital investments are stranded. "The new 726MOD offers Service Providers a new level of investment protection in CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) Communications equipment that resides on the customer's premises. CPE - Customer Premises Equipment . They can install the iMG726MOD with a 100Mbps WAN module, turn up service and when bandwidth demands increase to where more than 100Mbps is necessary. The new 1Gbps WAN module is installed in the existing gateway without any other changes to the electronics or outside plant enclosure," said Bill Lindsay, Executive Vice President of Engineering. "Additionally they can add optional HPNA or T1 modules, spending capital only when needed." Operational savings and fewer truck rolls with the iMG726MOD The iMG6x6MOD family from Allied Telesis set new standards for operational savings by providing zero-touch configuration and extensive fault isolation functions. The iMG726MOD further increases a service provider's operational savings by enhanced diagnostics on in-home wiring as well as the gateway itself. The diagnostic capabilities provide the ability to remotely trouble shoot and isolate wiring faults, both on the Ethernet LAN cables and the coax-based HPNA network. By enabling trouble shooting of each section at a time, the iMG726MOD reduces unnecessary truck rolls and service interruptions. Extensive VoIP support and feature set The iMG726MOD includes two POTS ports, and takes advantage of the extensive VoIP soft switch inter-op testing performed by the iMG6x6MOD family and provides instant compatibility with multiple soft switches over different protocols, such as MGCP See MGCP/MEGACO. MGCP - Media Gateway Control Protocol , SIP. The iMG726MOD also continues the expansive feature set from previous Allied Telesis gateways with firewall, NAT (Network Address Translation) An IETF standard that allows an organization to present itself to the Internet with far fewer IP addresses than there are nodes on its internal network. , IGMP (Internet Group Multicast Protocol) The protocol that governs the management of multicast groups in a TCP/IP network. To sign up for a multicast group, a Host Membership Report is sent by a user's machine to its nearest routers, which forward that data to , routing and many of the layer 2 and 3 features Service Providers enjoy from Allied Telesis intelligent media gateways. A four port iMG746MOD is also planned. The iMG726MOD will be available in Q4/08. Please contact your local Allied Telesis Service Provider sales person for pricing and delivery times.
