Safety when working with electricity
Mains Voltage: Do not open the case when the power cord is connected. For
systems without a power switch, line voltages are present within the power
supply when the power cord is connected.
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 cables, detach the end away from the
SmartNode first.
11
SmartNode 4552 & 4562 Getting Started Guide
Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of
lightning activity.
Before opening the chassis, disconnect the telephone network
cables to avoid contact with telephone line voltages.
Ultimate disposal of this equipment must be handled according
to all applicable national laws and regulations.

The Model 4552 has a 5V DC power input (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 16) 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.

• Off indicates the unit is not configured or registered, or has no active direct-
routed VoIP connection.
• Flashing green indicates that the unit is attempting to register or has failed
to register.
BRI (Phone and Line) Off indicates no active calls. Blinking when one or two B-channels are connected.

SmartNode 4552 & 4562 Getting Started Guide 2 • Applications overview
Introduction
Patton’s SmartNode VoIP Media Gateway Routers deliver the features you need for advanced multiservice
voice and data network applications. They combine high quality voice-over-IP with powerful quality of service
routing functions to build professional and reliable VoIP and data networks. This chapter describes typical
applications for which this SmartNode 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 at www.patton.com.
Application—Multi-service ISDN Internet telephony IAD
The SmartNode 4552 & 4562 with two ISDN BRI ports can be used to make and receive calls to and from
the public ISDN network and Internet Telephony services on any ISDN Terminal (Phone or PBX) (see
figure 4). Using individually configurable routing tables, an outbound call can be directed to the local PSTN
connection or to an Internet telephony service provider (ISTP). Inbound calls from the Internet and the PSTN
can ring the same phone.
Figure 4. Internet telephony IAD application (SN4552 shown)
Broadband network connectivity integrates with any fixed IP, DHCP or PPPoE service. An integrated 10/100
Ethernet LAN switch, with advanced routing features such as NAT, Firewall/ACL, DynDNS as well as
optional IPSec VPN, fulfills the requirements of demanding network users.
Quality of Service (QoS) features complete the offering with advanced voice prioritization and traffic management. Patton’s patent-pending DownStreamQoS™ ensures voice without interruptions even over best-effort
Internet connections.
