1.4 Hardware Overview
The Signaling Gateway may be purchased as one of the following equipment types:
• An SS7G21 is a 2U Signaling Server and may be purchased with one, two, or three Dialogic
®
DSI SPCI2S
Network Interface Boards (where each board provides four SS7 links, two T1/E1 interfaces and two V.11
serial ports per board) or one, two or three Dialogic
®
DSI SPCI4 Boards (where each board provides four
SS7 links and four T1/E1 interfaces per board).
• An SS7G22 is a 2U Signaling Server and may be purchased with one, two or three Dialogic
®
DSI SS7HDP
Network Interface Boards (where each board provides 64 SS7 links and four T1/E1 interfaces per board)
with a system maximum of 128 SS7 links.
• An SS7G31 is a 1U Signaling Server and may be purchased with one Dialogic
®
DSI SPCI4 Network
Interface Board, (with 4 SS7 links and 4 T1/E1 interfaces), or one Dialogic
®
DSI SS7HDP Board, (with 64
SS7 links and 4 T1/E1 interfaces or 2 HSL links).
• An SS7G32 is a 2U Signaling Server and may be purchased with one, two or three SS7HDP Boards (with
64 links and 4 T1/E1 interfaces per board or 2 HSL links per board) with a system maximum of 192 LSL
SS7 links or 6 HSL SS7 links.
When T1 or E1 is selected, the Signaling Gateway may be configured to pass the bearer channels from one
PCM port to another, effectively “dropping out” the signaling in line.
The SS7G31 and SS7G32 support two hard disks configured as a RAID 1 array. Refer to Section 7.7, “Hard
Disk Management” on page 146 for details. See Chapter 2, “Specification” for a definition of the capabilities
of the system.
