Page 1 of 13 Data Sheet Cisco VG450 Analog Voice Gateway The Cisco® VG450 High-Density Analog Voice Gateway enables an IP telephony solution to continue using traditional analog devices while taking advantage of the productivity afforded by IP infrastructure (Figure 1). The Cisco Unified Communications portfolio of voice and IP communications products and applications enables organizations to communicate more effectively - helping them to streamline business processes, reach the right resource the first time, and improve revenue sales and profitability. The Cisco Unified Communications portfolio is a critical part of the Cisco Business Communications Solution - an integrated solution for organizations of all sizes that also includes network infrastructure, security, and network management products, wireless connectivity, and a lifecycle services approach, along with flexible deployment and outsourced management options, end-user and partner financing packages, and third-party communications applications. Figure 1.
Cisco VG450 High-Density Analog Gateway

The Cisco VG450 High-Density Analog Gateway is a Cisco IOS-XE® Software-based analog phone gateway. It connects analog phones, fax machines, modems, and speakerphones to an enterprise voice system based on Cisco Unified Communications Manager (UCM). The tight integration with the IP-based phone system is advantageous for increased manageability, scalability, and cost-effectiveness. Businesses can also use the Cisco VG450 with Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express to effectively augment an Integrated Services Router (ISR) environment. Either topology environment will support business needs for high concentration of analog voice ports for modem calls, fax calls, and analog supplementary services (Figure 2). The Cisco VG450 offers Cisco IOS-XE Software manageability on analog phone lines to enable them to be used as extensions to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager or Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express system. The Cisco VG450 is offered in a 19-inch rack-mount chassis form.

Page 2 of 13 Features and benefits ● Cisco IOS-XE Software-based hardware: The hardware includes uniform Cisco Command-Line Interface (CLI) and Simple Network Management Protocol Version 3 (SNMPv3) support for ease of gateway configuration and operation. ● Robust voice quality: Cisco experience in providing toll-quality packet-voice service helps ensure that the Cisco VG450 provides the clear, robust voice quality end users have come to expect from telephony services. ● Investment protection: Customers can continue to use existing analog phones, fax machines, and modems while taking advantage of IP telephony. Basic analog phone connectivity is needed when the infrastructure (wiring) or application does not support or require IP phones. The Cisco VG450 is the ideal platform to support centralized and highly concentrated analog phone line deployments, allowing organizations to deploy IP telephony without having to purchase IP phones for all users and to continue using existing devices. The Cisco VG450 can also be used in a Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express environment and migrated to Cisco Unified Communications Manager deployment with 100-percent investment protection. ● High availability: The Cisco VG450 has four Gigabit Ethernet ports to enable link redundancy configurations toward the LAN. Customers will experience less voice downtime due to WAN link failure.
● Cisco VG450 powered by high-performance multicore processors: In this platform, power redundancy will be available by installing an optional integrated Cisco Redundant Power System (RPS), thereby decreasing network downtime and protecting the network from power-supply failures. DC PSU will be available by 1H2019. ● Reduced barrier to entry: The Cisco VG450 provides a low-cost alternative for low-end analog phones and allows organizations to take advantage of IP telephony with a lower overall IP telephony investment.

Page 5 of 13 The Cisco VG450 supports Feature Access Codes (FAC) in conjunction with Cisco Unified Communications Manager and Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express. Refer to Cisco Unified Communications Manager and Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express documentation for details. Fax and modem connectivity The Cisco VG450 supports fax machines and modems. When using fax machines, VG450 supports T.38 fax relay and fax pass-through. T.38 Fax Relay technologies allow transfer of faxes across the network with high reliability using less bandwidth than a voice call. All modems can be connected to the Cisco VG450 and will be transferred over the network using modem pass-through. Protocols supported ● SCCP ● H.323v4 ● MGCP ● SIP ● Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP) ● Secure Real-Time Transport Protocol (SRTP) ● Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) ● HTTP server ● SNMP ● Telnet ● Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) ● Domain Name System (DNS) ● Call survivability - MGCP failover to an H.323 connection to the SRST router ● T.38 Fax Relay, and modem pass-through ● Support G.711, and G.729a ● RADIUS and TACACS+ for Telnet and authorization Support for high density analog voice modules on VG450 VG450 leverage new generation of high density analog voice modules to provide modular solution with flexibility to configure FXS and FXO port density.

High density analog voice modules for VG450

Cisco High-Density Analog Voice and Fax Service Modules are available in either a single-wide or double-wide form factor, as depicted in Table 1. Table 2. Form factors Model Picture SM-X-8FXS/12FXO ● Single-wide service module

SM-X-16FXS/2FXO ● Single-wide service module

SM-X-24FXS/4FXO ● Single-wide service module

SM-X-72FXS ● Double-wide service module

The new generation of Cisco High-Density Analog Voice and Fax Service Modules improves upon the previous high-density analog and digital extension modules (EVMs). These improvements are highlighted below: ● On-board Digital Signal Processor (DSP): The FXO and FXS service modules contain an onboard DSP and don’t require the router to have a dedicated Packet Voice DSP Module (PVDM) on the motherboard. The DSP on the voice module is necessary for the voice features. It also provides for echo cancellation of up to 128-ms echo-tail length for demanding network conditions.

© 2019 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. This document is Cisco Public Information. Page 7 of 13 ● FXS-E (extended loops) support: FXS ports on the new modules support FXS-E with the following details: ◦ Higher loop current (35 mA) to accommodate specialty phones ◦ Longer loop length for loops with 26 AWG wire, up to 11,000 feet (3400 meters) ◦ Higher ringing voltage (65 Vrms, no load) ◦ The SM-X-72FXS module supports two FXS-E modes: ● Mode 1 (default): First 16 ports are FXS-E enabled, with the remaining 56 ports as regular FXS. ● Mode 2: First 56 ports are FXS-E enabled, with the remaining 16 ports disabled. Note: Switching between the modes requires reload of the ISR chassis. Table 2 summarizes the supported FXO failover bypass feature in each service module. ● FXO failover bypass ports: A failover bypass port, also called a failover trunk bypass, provides a way to use designated analog phone ports to make phone calls through the PSTN during a power outage.

Following are valid hardware combination options for high density analog voice modules in service module slot for VG450 bundles. VG450-144FXS/K9 ● Two SM-X-72FXS modules on VG450 for 144FXS Ports (top and bottom DW slots). VG450-72FXS/K ● One SM-X-72FXS module (bottom DW slot) with at least one single-wide high density analog voice module in top slot (mandatory). Max two single-wide high density analog voice service module in top slot. ● Only double wide high density module (SM-X-72FXS) supported in bottom slot. VG450/K9 ● Chassis only without any modules or NIMs.
