The ML-IP main link module provides a cost-effective and versatile, modular pseudowire (TDMoIP) solution for legacy TDM services over packet networks. It converts the TDM bit stream delivered by the internal Megaplex-2100/2104 backplane from the I/O modules, into IP packets that can be transmitted over packet switched networks.
ML-IP provides standard Ethernet connectivity for Megaplex. The module works with 10/100BaseT or 100BaseF Ethernet equipment, including RAD’s IPmux family of TDMoIP gateways, as part of an integrated corporate or campus IP network.
A Megaplex chassis equipped with ML-IP can be deployed at a main site to provide voice and data services over IP to multiple sites. It can also operate at the local site level with an IPmux unit at the main site, for extending digital PBX services over IP to other sites.
