CSCO debuts AS5800, part III
Carriers worldwide need Signaling System Number 7 (SS7) to integrate dial access into their
network infrastructures -- to reduce costs, offload voice switches, realize new revenue
opportunities and scale their networks cost-effectively. Cisco's recent acquisition of
LightSpeed International brings the core technology to provide SS7 signaling protocols and
interfaces to Cisco's carrier-class dial platforms, including the AS5800. With SS7, carriers
can offer dial outsourcing services with, in many cases, 50 percent lower capital costs
compared with PRI solutions, while scaling to central-office sized POPs of well over 10,000
ports.

MICA Modems for Cisco AS5800; Support for V.90

The Cisco AS5800 universal access server benefits from advanced Modem ISDN Channel
Aggregation (MICA(TM)) technologies. Digital modem technology offers ''any-to-any''
multisession functionality for current analog modem standards, including K56Flex, supplying
value-added functions for ISDN channels and Channelized E1/T1. These modems have a free
software upgrade to the recently introduced ITU V.90 draft specification, which is designed to
upgrade current K56flex and x2 modems to a new interoperable standard for 56-kbps
connectivity.

Pricing and Availability

The Cisco AS5800 is orderable immediately at a U.S. list price starting at $515/port.
