Sangoma A200

The Sangoma A200 is a modular 4-port FXO/FXS PCI card that can be scaled from 2-24 ports.

Sangoma's A200 board requires FXS and/or FXO modules, additional Remora boards and a backplane can also be added for scalability.

The A200 connects to a server's PCI slot, and it can be expanded by adding additional FXS and FXO modules.

The Sangoma A200 delivers fantastic audio quality and even shares the system architecture of Sangoma's A101, A104, and A108 cards, ensuring common 3.3V or 5V high performance, universal PCI compatibility, and upgradable firmware.

Sangoma A200 Features:

• From 2 to 24 ports are supported, your choice of FXO and FXS as you require
• Support for Asterisk, FreeSwitch, Yates and proprietary PBX, Switch, IVR and VoIP gateway applications
• Single, synchronous PCI interface for all FXO/FXS ports
• Four RJ11 ports with each Remora card
• 2U form factor, and it includes both standard and short 2U compatible mounting clips for installation in a 2U rack-mount server
• 32-bit bus master DMA data exchanges across PCI interface at 132Mbytes/sec to ensure minimum host processor intervention
• Autosense with 5V and 3.3V PCI busses
• PCI 2.2 compliant, compatible with all commercially available motherboards, and proper sharing of PCI interrupts
• Intelligent hardware allows for downloadable file programmable gate array programming with multiple operating modes
• Field upgradable so new features can be added as they are released
• Maximum operational power for PCI: 3.75W (0.75 A @ 5V) + 4.2W (0.35A @ 12V) per FXS module
• Temperature range of 0-50°C
• Ships with standard RJ-11 terminated cables

Sangoma A200 Fax Capabilities:

The Sangoma A200 means you no longer need a dedicated analog line for your fax communications, since you may use a T1/E1 pass through so there are no clock slips, buffer overruns or transmit underruns that can cause missed lines, blank sheets and missed pages while faxing.

Sangoma A200 Specifications:

The A200 and Remora™ cards incorporate four, 4-pin RJ11 narrow jacks, such as used in telephone handsets. Each Sangoma A200 Card is shipped with four 2m cables terminating in a narrow RJ11/4 plug at one end and a telephone-standard RJ11/6 plug at the other.

For those who need to hard wire the A200 system, you can purchase a kit of 12 RJ11/4 plugs and a crimping tool, sold separately.

With Sangoma, there is no need for a separate analog line to run your fax machine.

Using T1/E1 passthrough with Sangoma analog cards, there are no clock slips, buffer overruns, or transmit underruns that cause missed lines, blank sheets, and missed pages when faxing.

Sangoma A200 and A400 cards synchronize perfectly with digital T1/E1 cards and the PSTN atomic clock for error-free fax and modem passthrough and superior voice quality over T1 and E1 lines.* (*Hardware echo cancellation option required.)
