SmartNode 4630 overview
The SmartNode 4630 ISDN S0 VoIP Gateway-Router (see figure 1) combines IP routing, VPN/Security, and
Quality of Service with high-quality Voice over IP (VoIP) delivered on five ISDN S
(BRI). This combination allows you to leverage low-cost Internet Telephony on existing ISDN Phones and
PBX equipment for complete SoHo and branch office voice and data connectivity.

Figure 1. SmartNode 4630
The SmartNode 4630 series consists of two models: the SN4634 and SN4638. Both models come equipped
with two 10/100Base-T Ethernet ports.
The SmartNode 4638 Gateway-Router performs the following major functions:
• Eight channels of Voice over IP and local voice switching via 5 ISDN BRI S
ports. Each port can be

switched between NT and TE per software. One port can be used a clock source.
• For each ISDN S0 port in NT mode a Phantom power supply can be switched on. The total delivered
power is 4W.
• A fallback cut-through relay between ISDN BRI ports 0/0 and 0/1 electrically connects the NT and TE
port in case of power failure and enables life-line calls to the public ISDN network (PSTN-supplied
ISDN line must be used).
• Standard compliant VoIP in accordance with SIP or H.323 protocols.
• Internet access and IP Routing with IP Quality of Service (QoS) support for mixed voice and data traffic.

ISDN BRI TE/NT port, RJ-45 socket S0 (S/T) interface (see figure 2), connects the
SmartNode with an ISDN device over an S/T bus, e.g. a PBX or an NT. The interface may be used as fallback if connected to an NT. The port can be switched
between TE and NT mode.The interface is internally terminated with 100 Ohm.
Point-to-point or point-to-multipoint configurable. If the port is in NT mode a phantom
power supply can be switched on to supply connected phones with power.

Used for service and maintenance, the Console port (see figure 2), an RS-232 RJ-45
connector, connects the product to a serial terminal such as a PC or ASCII terminal
(also called a dumb terminal).
Electricity supply socket for mains power cable. (see figure 2).
The reset button (see figure 2) has three functions:
• Restart the unit with the current startup configuration—Press (for less than 1 second)
and release the Reset button to restart the unit with the current startup configuration.
• Restart the unit with factory default configuration—Press the Reset button for
5 seconds until the Power LED (see figure 3 on page 17) starts blinking to restart
the unit with factory default configuration.
• Restart the unit in bootloader mode (to be used only by trained SmartNode tech-
nicians)—Starting with the unit powered off, press and hold the Reset button as
you apply power to the unit. Release the Reset button when the Power LED starts
blinking so the unit will enter bootloader mode.
