Aastra Network Access
CVX 1800 and CVX 600
Multi-Service Access Switches
True carrier-class access
• Flexible deployment options: CVX 1800 processes 2,688 calls
per chassis; CVX 600 processes 612 calls per chassis
• Enables high-speed dial, VoIP, FoIP, VPN, tandem,
and wholesale services
• Delivers universal port capabilities-allowing for a single voice
and data network
• Interoperates with the CVX SS7 Gateway to reduce costs,
time to market, and switch congestion
• Industry-leading reliability-fully redundant architecture, 98.5 percent
connection success; 100 percent throughput
• Telcordia "certified" NEBS Level 3, Earthquake Zone 4 access switch
To meet the increasing demand for Internet access and
Service Providers must be able to scale their network
access infrastructure and aggressively compete by offer-
ing differentiated services with a quick return on invest-
ment. The limitations of existing remote access products
have created serious challenges for Service Providers
looking to achieve a balance between their investments in
infrastructure and the potential revenue gains offered by
emerging voice and data services.
The CVX 600’s 612 ports per chas-
sis and ability to deploy 6,120 ports
per 7 foot telco rack, offer a smaller
vertical footprint, density, and lower
power requirements, to make it the
ideal solution for smaller POPs.

Ideal for wholesalers
Aastra Network Access CVX 1800
and CVX 600 offer unparalleled
scalability, flexibility, performance,
and manageability that enable
wholesalers to substantially lower
their installation, operations, and
expansion costs while offering the
broadest array of IP services.

Quality of Service (QoS)
The CVX 1800 and CVX 600 sup-
port a variety of QoS approaches.
The QoS strategy for the CVX

The definitive solution for whole-
saling, the CVX Multi-Service
Access Switches’ Virtual Point-of-
Presence (Virtual POP) feature
enables wholesalers to partition
single or multiple CVX 1800s and
CVX 600s into a series of mutual-
ly independent access switches,
each with its own authentication
method, database billing system,
and management interface. With
the Virtual POP feature, whole-
salers can customize their network
of CVX 1800s and CVX 600s
according to the specific needs of
each outsourcing customer.

SS7 interoperability
Hardware specifications
The CVX 1800 and CVX 600 inter-
operate with the industry-leading
CVX SS7 Gateway to provide cost
savings and alleviate switch con-
gestion caused by Internet traffic,
thus improving network perform-
ance. By interoperating with the
CVX SS7 Gateway, carriers and
service providers can deploy the
CVX 1800 and CVX 600 in an SS7
environment rather than a PRI
environment, thereby reducing
costs by upwards of 50 percent.
The ability to terminate CO Class 5
switch data traffic reduces Internet
congestion. New services such as
data-only PRI and switch grooming
can be added to the carrier’s and
service provider’s offerings.
