WARNING
WARNING
Hazardous network voltages are present in WAN ports regardless of whether
power to the SmartNode is ON or OFF. To avoid electric shock, use caution
when near WAN ports. When detaching the cables, detach the end away from
the SmartNode first.
Because telephone line voltages can be dangerous, when detaching the network cables, disconnect the end away from the SmartNode first.
Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of
lightning activity.
In accordance with the requirements of council directive 2002/
96/EC on Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE),
ensure that at end-of-life you separate this product from other

About this guide
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
When starting to install interface cards place the interface card on its shielded plastic bag if you lay it on
your bench.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. It occurs when electronic
printed circuit cards are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures.
Always follow ESD prevention procedures when removing and
replacing cards.
Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good
skin contact. Connect the clip to an unpainted surface of the
chassis frame to safely channel unwanted ESD voltages
to ground.
To properly guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist
strap and cord must operate effectively. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.
General observations
lean the case with a soft slightly moist anti-static cloth
• C
• Place the unit on a flat surface and ensure free air circulation
• Avoid exposing the unit to direct sunlight and other heat sources
•
Protect the unit from moisture, vapors, and corrosive liquid

SmartNode 4400 Series overview
The IpChannel Bank 4400 Series are Analog Access Routers that support 12 to 32 VoIP calls. Filling the gap
between small media gateways and T1/E1 gateway equipment, the SN4400 Series IpChannel Bank fits your
needs cost effectively—so you won’t have to “stack” multiple smaller units or buy an over-designed product.
Figure 1. Model SN4432 IpChannel Bank
The following base models are available:
• IpChannel Bank 4412 (12 VoIP calls)
• IpChannel Bank 4416 (16 VoIP calls)
• IpChannel Bank 4424 (24 VoIP calls)
• IpChannel Bank 4432 (32 VoIP calls)
Refer to appendix B, “Specifications” on page 49 for a complete feature description of the SN4400 Series.
The SmartNode 4400 Series comes equipped with two 10/100Base-T Ethernet ports and from 12 to 32 FXS
ports. This provides voice-over-IP (VoIP) and Internet telephony integrated with routed serial-WAN access.
The SN4400 IpChannel Bank supports Frame-Relay and PPP networking with VPN and firewall functions
and provides extensive quality of service (QoS) features for best-possible voice quality over any broadband IP
network.
The SmartNode IpChannel Bank performs the following major functions:
• Voice over IP and local switching via a combination of 12, 16, 24, or 32 analog phone ports (FXS).
• Standards-compliant conversion between analog voice and digital VoIP in accordance with SIP and
H.323 protocols.
• Internet access and IP Routing with IP QoS support for mixed voice and data traffic.
• Routed LAN-to-WAN connectivity between two 10/100 Ethernet LAN ports

Port Description
ETH 0/0 (WAN Ethernet 0/0 port) 10/100Base-Tx full-/half-duplex, RJ-45, auto detection and auto-
MDI-X connects the unit to an Ethernet WAN device (for example,
a cable modem, DSL modem, or fiber modem).
ETH 0/1 (LAN Ethernet 0/1 port) 10/100Base-Tx full-/half-duplex, RJ-45, auto detection and fall-
back, connects the unit to an Ethernet LAN.
Console (RS-232 control port) Used for service and maintenance, the Console port, an RS-232
RJ-45 connector with EIA-561 pinout, connects the router to a
serial terminal such as a PC or ASCII terminal (also called a dumb
terminal). Asynchronous default data rate 9600 bps, hardware
DSR and DTR signals for external modems are wired directly
together internally
FXS Ports (4400/JS models) For connection of up to 32 analog FXS devices (selectable for 12,
16, 24, or 32). Either a 50-pin or 64-pin RJ21X connector that
connects the router to an analog terminal (a telephone, for example) FXO port. EuroPOTS support (ETSI EG201 188).

Reset button behavior
For those SmartNode devices that have a Reset button on the rear panel, its behavior is as follows:
• To restart the unit with the current startup configuration—Press for less than 1 second and release the Reset
button. The SmartNode will restart with the current startup configuration.
• To restart the unit with factory default configuration—Press the Reset button for 5 seconds until the Power
LED starts blinking. The unit will restart with factory default configuration.
• To restart the unit in bootloader mode (to be used only by trained SmartNode technicians)—Start with the
unit powered off. Press and hold the Reset button while applying power to the unit. Release the Reset button
when the Power LED starts blinking so the unit will enter bootloader mode.

SmartNode 4400 Series Getting Started Guide 2 • Applications overview
Introduction
Patton's SmartNode 4400 Series deliver the features you need for advanced multiservice voice and data networking. SmartNode 4400 Series combine high-quality voice-over-IP with powerful quality of service routing
features to deliver seamlessly integrated VoIP and data access over leased lines. This chapter describes typical
applications for which the SmartNode 4400 Series series is uniquely suited.
Note Detailed configuration information for the applications can be found
on the CD-ROM that was included with your SmartNode device or
online from the Patton webserver.
SmartNode 4400 Series applications
SmartNode 4400 Series devices have dual 10/100Base-T Ethernet ports. The two Ethernet ports provide full
featured IP routing plus Ethernet and IP layer QoS services. Voice prioritization and traffic management avoid
network congestion and provide optimal voice quality. The following sections show two typical converged
voice-and-data applications.
Like all members of the SmartNode family of VoIP solutions, the SmartNode 4400 Series supports all industry-standard VoIP signaling protocols, including SIP, H.323, T.38 fax-relay, plus fax- and modem-bypass. The
SmartNode 4400 is interoperable with leading softswitches and VoIP servers
Enterprise FXS concentration and extension over IP and T1/E1
The SN4400 Series IpChannel Bank can be used with a T1/E1 gateway to extend a T1 or E1 line over IP and
split it into FXS ports—providing operators and enterprise network administrators with a simple and costeffective option to provide a large number of FXS ports in a remote location (see figure 4).
