Outstanding Voice Experience
The AR2200 provides various voice functions for enterprise data networks, enabling the enterprises to communicate flexibly and efficiently.

Secure Service Access
During service provision, the AR2200 ensures security of enterprise networks. It provides a complete security protection mechanism, including user access control, packet detection, and active attack defense. This mechanism protects customers’ investments.

Intelligent Service Deployment
As the enterprise scale increases, enterprise users have high requirements on service deployment. The AR2200 provides USB disk to deploy devices and auto-config function for service deployment.

Simplified Service Management
Enterprise users require simply service management. The AR2200 provides the iTec, NQA, NetStream functions to simplify service management.
Applications & Benefits

High-Density GE Access
The AR2200 provides 24GE interface cards to implement high-density GE access. This interface card facilitates network operation and maintenance and protects investment.

High-Quality Voice Service
As a voice gateway for enterprise networks, the AR2200 can function as an IP PBX or SIP gateway.

IP PBX application
The AR routers have built-in PBX, which supports the enterprise main number, IVR, and bill query functions to enhance corporate image and improve enterprise communication efficiency. The AR2200 is located in a branch to provide the intelligent dialing function. When a fault occurs on the WAN, the PSTN network is used as a backup for calls. When the SIP server at the headquarters is unreachable, the built-in local SIP server of the AR2200 implements communication between the branches and communication between branch and PSTN network. This ensures reliability of the voice service.

SIP gateway application
The AR2200 integrates voice, fax, and IP services. When providing voice services for enterprise users, the AR2200 functions as the SIP access gateway of a branch to transform phone signals into VoIP signals. The AR2200 uplink interfaces are connected to the IMS/NGN network to allow any media including phones, handsets, and computers to communicate at any time.

3G Wireless Access in Branch
The AR2200 complies with 3G standards including CDMA2000 EV-DO, WCDMA, and TD-SCDMA, meeting the wireless communication requirements between branches and the headquarters. Users can use a 3G USB disk to deploy 3G services on the AR2200, saving service card slots. In addition, the 3G data link can be used as a backup for wired link to protect the xDSL, FE/GE, ISDN, and CPOS uplinks. The backup link improves network stability and reduces network construction costs. The AR2200 provides the NQA function to detect 3G link quality, ensuring the SLA.

VPN in Branch
The AR2200 provides various secure access functions to implement communication between enterprise branches and between branches and the headquarters, and to enable partners to access enterprise resources. Tunnels such as GRE VPN and IPSEC VPN are set up between the headquarters and branches to implement secure data access and transmission. The AR2200 implements fast tunnel deployment and authentication for branches. Using a tunnel, partners can access and share enterprise resources. The AR2200 provides authentication and authorization for users.

As the PEs of an MPLS network, the AR2200s are located in the branches. Different types of services are separated by MPLS L3 VPN. The AR2200 implements flexible deployment, fast distribution, and secure transmission of VPN services, while supporting enterprise service operation over networks.
