SURPASS hiG 1100/1200
Family of Media Gateways for Trunks
Your Customers
enjoy the same high-availability, top
quality voice service from a platform
that also enables you to easily add
virtual trunks as demand grows.
Your Business
is safe and growing: current revenue
streams are protected by delivering
carrier features to subscribers while
you migrate traffic to your packet
network.
Your Investment
enables you to increase profits by
expanding your capacity and cutting
per-channel costs.
The Future
can be deployed today, since the
SURPASS hiG family enables carrier-
grade mediation between the existing
TDM infrastructure and tomorrow’s
next generation packet network.
Strong reliability for maximum revenue
As you move to more lucrative next gener-
ation networking, it’s crucial to interface
circuit-switched traffic with your IP net-
work for the highest bottom line boost.
Siemens’ SURPASS hiG Media Gateways
convert voice, fax, modem and ISDN data
traffic originating from the TDM network
into packets that can be transmitted over
the QoS IP network. All of this is accom-
plished with carrier-grade reliability and
also enables profitable and rapid deploy-
ment of innovative, differentiated services.
As a key component of the SURPASS next
generation networking solutions and
applications, these VoIP gateways ensure
interworking between the existing fixed
line networks today and IP networks.
The SURPASS hiG Media Gateways deliver
significant benefits. You’ll enjoy immedi-
ate per-port cost savings over legacy TDM
architectures. And because the SURPASS
hiGs support a variety of industry stan-
dards protocols, you’ll have greater flexibil-
ity to deploy the precise service mix your
customers want – faster than your compe-
tition.
Both the SURPASS hiG 1100 and 1200
interwork with the SURPASS hiE 9200
Migration Switch and SURPASS hiQ 8000
Softswitch to deliver advanced packet-
based services. Siemens engineers,
who’ve led the industry in quality voice
transport solutions for over a century,
designed both gateways. We’ve brought
this voice expertise into the IP environ-
ment and developed high-quality, carrier
platforms that deliver maximum uptime.
Highlights at a glance
The SURPASS hiG Media Gateways for
Trunks are comprised of scalable and
standards-based gateway platforms that
mediate TDM traffic (in circuit-switched,
fixed, or mobile switching networks) to
the packet world with carrier-grade relia-
bility. The SURPASS hiG 1100 (small to
medium density gateway) and SURPASS
hiG 1200 (medium to high density gate-
way) have specific features in store for you:
■ They are fault-tolerant gateways deliv-
ering mission-critical services with
proven system availability
■ They are field replaceable units that
can be hot swapped and boast soft-
ware that is upgradeable with no serv-
ice interruption
■ They provide support for all bearer traf-
fic modes, including voice, fax, modem
and ISDN over IP
■ They support industry standard proto-
cols such as MGCP, MEGACO/H.248,
TGCP, and SNMP
