The ultimate 3G peripheral for enterprise routers

“Enable your existing enterprise router with 3G connectivity, easily solving

coverage problems and minimizing installation costs”
1
The Teldat 3Ge is an external Interface Card (i.e. an external WIC ) that enables the
enterprise router with 3G. This cutting-edge peripheral does not require additional
Interface Card slots nor PCMCIA or USB slots in the router. The unique interface between
the Teldat 3Ge and the router is Ethernet.

But the Teldat 3Ge is not a router, it is the interface that grants the Wireless WAN access
to the router. The management of this new 3G interface is seamlessly integrated into the
router engine, so that the service intelligence offered by the router for the land-line WAN
service are fully available for the new Wireless WAN service. The standard-based
communication on Ethernet between the Teldat 3Ge and the router guarantees the
compatibility with a vast range of existing enterprise routers.

This innovative device offers an easy and cost effective solution

for boosting the 3G in indoor scenarios. Enterprise routers are
hosted in the Server Room or in the Data Center Room where
typically there is lack of 3G coverage or, if present, the radio
signal is not strong enough to guarantee broadband speeds at
high 3G frequency bands. Addressing this challenge, the Teldat
3Ge is placed outside the server room to the spot with the best
3G coverage and delivers the 3G service to the router over the
corporate Ethernet network. This new approach overrides the
need of expensive coaxial cables and repeaters to boost the 3G
coverage.

Some Teldat 3Ge models include a VoIP to GSM Mediagateway

so the office VoIP calls can be transmitted to the GSM network.
The firm not only benefits from a least-cost call routing policy,
but also its VoIP Disaster Recovery plan is improved with the
option of local VoIP call breakin/breakout into the GSM network
on emergency.

ADVANTAGES

Cost reduction and easy indoor 3G upgrade. No expensive coaxial wiring nor amplifiers is required to link the enterprise network
platform to the 3G antenna, just the existing firm’s Ethernet wiring.
Reuse of the enterprise router installed base. No need for free expansion slots in the router.
Compatible with third party enterprise routers. The standard-based communication with the router guarantees the compatibility
with a large range of third party enterprise routers.
Fully managed from the enterprise router engine. The Teldat 3Ge is fully configured and monitored from the router.
Ready for Converged Services. Flexible traffic flow distribution policies can be implemented in the router for the efficient use of the
router land-line WAN and Wireless WAN (Teldat 3Ge) resources. The Wireless WAN access can also be shared with Voice traffic,
2
thanks to the Teldat 3Ge Voice support for least-cost call forwarding and emergency call breakin/breakout during disasters.
Easy migration to future cellular technologies. The enterprise cellular technology is upgraded by just replacing the Teldat 3Ge.
Best in class Scalability. A single router can manage multiple Teldat 3Ge devices, allowing for the coexistence of independent
Wireless WAN services in the enterprise for Disaster Recovery.

APPLICATION SCENARIO
In the left figure the corporate branch office ADSL router is
equipped with a Teldat 3Ge. When the enterprise router
detects a failure in its Main Link, then it forwards the IP
traffic to the HSPA service.

A new virtual Point-to-Point interface is configured into the

router. Upon the successful attachment of the Teldat 3Ge
into the WWAN network, the negotiated IP address is
assigned to the router virtual interface. All the WWAN
service intelligence (IP forwarding, IP link quality supervision,
QoS, VPN, etc) is centralized in the router engine.

The right figure illustrates the Teldat 3Ge VoIP to GSM

Mediagateway capabilities. The enterprise router is featured
with a SIP Proxy and the Teldat 3Ge formats the VoIP call into
a GSM audio call.

The SIP Proxy serves the office call requests and forwards
them to the Central ToIP server or to the Teldat 3Ge so they
can be placed is GSM calls. The Teldat 3Ge can also receive
calls to its SIM card phone number and forward them inside
to the Proxy Server so they can reach the appropriate
destination.

Upon a significant degradation of the IP connection ot the

Central ToIP Server, the SIP Proxy Dial Plan is modified so all
external calls are sent to the Teldat 3Ge and converted to
GSM calls.

PRODUCT FEATURES
Auto-provisioning (No Teldat 3Ge manual programming required). A new Point-to-Point interface is configured into the router to
manage the Teldat 3Ge. When the Teldat 3Ge boots up, it receives the full Ethernet and 3G programming on DHCP.
Advanced 3G failure detection & reporting. Detection mechanisms based on control traffic flow tracking and inactivity timers,
permits the Teldat 3Ge to report back to the router the cause of the 3G failure.
Teldat’s World Class 3G diagnostics. The most complete radio interface monitoring information is available for an accurate service
quality audition and accounting, such as the signal strength history report on the past hour, the serving and neighbor cell received
instant power, transmission speed, detailed UTRAN info and AT Command Line Interface.
VoIP Mediagateway (SIP and RTP/RTCP to GSM audio).
Small form-factor, Desktop or wall mounted.
Powered by PoE (IEEE 802.3af) or by an external power supply (included).
