Application—Multi-service ISDN Internet telephony IAD
The SmartNode 4552 & 4562 with two ISDN BRI ports can be used to make and receive calls to and from
the public ISDN network and Internet Telephony services on any ISDN Terminal (Phone or PBX) (see
figure 4). Using individually configurable routing tables, an outbound call can be directed to the local PSTN
connection or to an Internet telephony service provider (ISTP). Inbound calls from the Internet and the PSTN
can ring the same phone.
