Cisco SPA 2102 VOIP ROUTER WITH 2 FXS
Inexpensive, easy to install, and simple to use, the Cisco® SPA2102 Phone Adapter with Router (Figure 1) connects a standard telephone or fax machine to an IP-based data network. Voice over IP (VoIP) service providers can offer residential and business users traditional and enhanced communication services via the customer's broadband connection to the Internet.
The Cisco SPA2102 features two basic telephone ports to connect existing analog phones or fax machines to a private branch exchange (PBX) system. It also includes two 100BASE-T RJ-45 Ethernet interfaces to connect to a home or office LAN, as well as an Ethernet connection to connect a broadband modem or router (WAN). Each phone line can be configured independently via software controlled by the service provider or the end user. With the SPA2102, users are able to protect and extend their investment in their existing analog telephones, conference speakerphones, and fax machines, as well as control their migration to IP with an extremely affordable, reliable solution.
Installed by the end user and remotely provisioned, configured, and maintained by the service provider, each Cisco SPA2102 converts voice traffic into data packets for transmission over an IP network. Compact in design, the SPA2102 can be used in consumer and business VoIP service offerings, including full-featured IP Centrex environments. The SPA2102 uses international standards for voice and data networking for reliable operation.
