Detailed description of G430 Branch Gateway

Last Updated : May 13, 2019 |

G430 Branch Gateway can support up to 150 users in a medium or large branch office of a large enterprise or a call center. The configuration requires the Communication Manager IP telephony software running on one or more Avaya supported servers. G430 Branch Gateway with S8300E server supports 150 users.

An Avaya supported server operating either as an External Call Controller (ECC) or as an Internal Call Controller (ICC) supports telephone services on G430 Branch Gateway. G430 Branch Gateway supports S8300E as an ICC or as an ECC when S8300E Server is installed in another G430 Branch Gateway. G430 Branch Gateway also supports duplex server as ECCs.

You can use an ICC and an ECC with the ICC installed as a survivable remote server (Local Survivable Processor) to take over call control if the ECC fails or the WAN link between the branch office and main location breaks. The survivable remote server provides full-featured telephone service survivability for the branch office. G430 Branch Gateway also includes standard local survivability (SLS), which provides basic telephone services when the connection with the primary ECC is lost.

G430 Branch Gateway is a scalable device with a basic configuration consisting of one power supply unit (PSU), 256 MB RAM, and a single on-board DSP that has the capacity of supporting 25 VoIP channels for G.711 or G.726, 20 VoIP channels for G.729, or a combination of both. You can enhance this configuration by adding a MP10, MP20, MP80, or MP120 VoIP module. You can also replace the 256 MB of RAM with 512 MB of RAM and use an external compact flash to increase the number of announcement files from 256 to 1024.

G430 Branch Gateway is a modular device that can support different combinations of endpoint devices. While fixed front panel ports support the connection to external LAN switches, network data ports, Ethernet WAN lines, and external routers, three slots are available for plugging in optional media modules. You can connect two EM200 expansion modules to G430 Branch Gateway, providing two media module slots each, increasing the number of available media module slots to seven.

Pluggable media modules provide interfaces for different types of telephones and trunks. You can select a combination to suit the needs of the branch office. A range of telephony modules provides full support for legacy equipment such as analog and digital telephones. IP telephones are supported through an external LAN switch.

G430 Branch Gateway includes a field replaceable RAM memory card and a DSP childboard.

G430 Branch Gateway chassis includes field replaceable RAM, DSPs, PSUs, fan tray, and main board module for enhanced reliability.
