Sangoma A200DE

The Sangoma A200DE is a 4-port, modular FXO/FXS PCI Express card that comes with hardware echo cancellation. The Sangoma A200DE can be expanded to a maximum 24 FXS and/or FXO ports. The Sangoma A200DE gives excellent audio quality in an expandable 2U form factor card.

Sangoma A200DE cards are designed for error-free faxing as well as click-free audio on analog–digital links. The Sangoma A200DE board requires FXS and/or FXO modules. Additional Remora boards and a backplane can be added for increased scalability.

The Sangoma A200DE card uses just a single PCI Express slot, even when it is fully expanded. This ensures synchronous clocking for all channels.

The A200DE and Remora system architecture is shared with the A101, A104, and A108 cards,to give a common 3.3V or 5V high performance, universal PCI compatibilities. The A200DE's firmware is upgradable that allows users to take advantage of new updates and enhancements as they become available.

Sangoma A200DE Features:

• 2 to 24 port support, with FXO and FXS combinations as required
• PBX, Switch, IVR and VoIP gateways are supported from Asterisk, FreeSwitch, Yates, and other open source and proprietary manufacturers
• One synchronous PCI Express interface for all FXO/FXS ports
• Four RJ11 ports come with each Remora card (one card is included, but no modules)
• 2U form factor, shipment includes 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/second give you 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 enables a downloadable file, and programmable gate array programming with multiple operating modes
• Field upgradable allows for new features to be added as they become available
• 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
• Includes standard RJ-11 terminated cables

Sangoma A200DE Fax Capabilities:

The Sangoma A200DE eliminates the need for a dedicated analog line for fax communications. Sangoma cards use a T1/E1 pass through which eliminates clock slips, buffer overruns or transmit underruns that can sometimes cause missed lines, blank sheets and missed pages while faxing.

Sangoma A200DE Specifications:

• From 2 to 24 ports supported, mixing FXO and FXS interfaces, as required.
• Support for the Asterisk™, Yate™, FreeSwitch™, CallWeaver™, OPAL™ PBX/IVR projects, as well as other Open Source and proprietary PBX/Switch/IVR/VoIP gateway applications.
• Single synchronous PCI interface for all 24 FXO/FXS ports.
• Four RJ11 ports per Remora™ card.
• Dimensions: 2U Form factor: 120 mm x 55 mm for use in restricted chassis.
• Short 2U compatible mounting clips available for installation in 2U rack-mount servers.

• Autosense compatibility with 5V and 3.3V PCI busses.
• Fully PCI 2.2 compliant, compatible with all commercially available motherboards, proper sharing of PCI interrupts.
• Intelligent hardware: Downloadable Field Programmable Gate Array programming with multiple operating modes. Field upgradeable so that new features can be added when they become available.

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.)
