The SPA3102 features the ability to connect standard telephones and fax
machines to IP-based data networks with the additional benefit of an integrated
connection for legacy telephone network "hop-on, hop-off" applications. SPA3102
users will be able to leverage their broadband phone service more than ever by
automatically routing local calls from mobile phones and land lines over to VoIP
service providers and vice versa. If power is lost to the unit or Internet
service is down, calls can be redirected to a traditional carrier via the FXO
interface.

A user calling from a mobile phone or land line will be able to reduce and
even eliminate international and long distance telephone charges by first
calling their SPA3102 via a local telephone number. The advanced authentication
and call routing intelligence programmed into the SPA3102 will route the call
via the Internet to the far end destination. In addition, when using the SPA3102
at the far end, VoIP calls placed to that location can be either answered or
further processed and routed on as a local call to any legacy land line or
mobile phone.
The SPA3102 supports one RJ-11 POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) FXS port to
connect an existing analog phone or fax machine. The SPA3102 also supports one
PSTN FXO port to connect to a Telco or PBX circuit. The SPA3102 includes 2
100BaseT RJ-45 Ethernet interfaces to connect to a home or office LAN, as well
as an Ethernet connection to a broadband modem or router. The SPA3102 FXS and
FXO lines can be independently configured via software controlled by the service
provider or the end user.
Installed by the end user and remotely provisioned, configured and maintained
by the service provider, each SPA3102 converts voice traffic into data packets
for transmission over an IP network. Compact in design, the SPA3102 can be used
in consumer and business VoIP service offerings including a full-featured IP
Centrex environment. The SPA3102 uses international standards for voice and data
networking for reliable voice and fax operation.
Toll Quality Voice and Carrier-Grade Feature Support
The
SPA3102 delivers clear, high-quality voice communication in diverse network
conditions. Excellent voice quality in a demanding IP network is consistently
achieved via our advanced implementation of standard voice coding algorithms.
The SPA3102 is interoperable with common telephony equipment like voicemail,
Fax, PBX, and interactive voice response systems.
Large-Scale Deployment and Management
The SPA3102 offers
all the key features and capabilities which service providers can provide
customized VoIP services to their subscribers. The SPA3102 can be remotely
provisioned and supports dynamic, in-service software upgrades. A secure profile
upload saves providers the time, expense, and hassle of managing and
pre-configuring or re-configuring customer premise equipment (CPE) for
deployment.
Ironclad Security
Linksys understands that security for
end users and service providers is a fundamental requirement for a solid,
carrier-grade telephony service. The SPA3102 supports secure, standard
encryption-based methods for communication, provisioning and servicing.
