Q: How do I setup an Atlas 500/800 Plus/810 Plus for voice compression and IP over frame relay? A: Introduction The ATLAS Voice Compression Module combines with other ATLAS components to allow voice and fax traffic to share the same lines as data and LAN traffic. A single Voice Compression Module simultaneously compresses up to 30 channels for the ATLAS 550 and up to 32 channels for the ATLAS 800PLUS/810PLUS for transmission over public or private frame relay networks or dedicated leased lines. Voice and data traffic integration yields a dramatic reduction in communication expenses. The ATLAS 800PLUS/810PLUS Voice Compression Module (VCOM) occupies a single slot in the chassis and is available in 8, 16, 24, and 32-channel configurations. A single ATLAS 800PLUS/810PLUS system with multiple Voice Compression Modules installed can simultaneously compress up to 64 channels of voice. The ATLAS 550 Voice Compression Module is a plug-on board for a user interface module occupying a single slot and is available in 4, 8, 16, and 24- channel configurations. A single ATLAS 550 system with multiple Voice Compression Modules installed can simultaneously compress up to 30 channels of voice. The ATLAS Voice Compression Module interoperates with ADTRAN's Frame Relay Access Device (FRAD) products, such as the Express 5200/5210 or ATLAS 550, when the FRADs are equipped with FXS or FXO cards. Channelized T3, T1, Primary Rate ISDN (PRI), or Basic Rate ISDN (BRI) circuits provide network access to the ATLAS Voice Compression Module. The ATLAS Voice Compression Module automatically detects fax transmissions and locally demodulates the fax, sending the baseband component of the fax over the link. Before You Begin Before configuring the ATLAS 550/800PLUS/810PLUS and Express 5200/5210s, the following information must be obtained from the frame relay service provider:
