• Media Gateway support for the HiPath 8000 includes several options: Siemens HiPath
4000 v.3.0 via SIP; Siemens HiPath 3000 v.7.0 via SIP (pending release); Siemens RG
8700 and RG 2700; and third-party gateways (such as Cisco 3700 and Mediatrix),
although supported functionality depends on third-party adherence to the SIP standard.
• Basic survivability for remote locations is supported on the RG 8700, as well as on the
HiPath 4000 and 3000 when upgraded to support the HiPath 8000. Station-to-station
calls, public switched telephone network access and E9-1-1 services are available at all
times in remote locations.
• HiPath 8000 release 2.x uses SIP over Q.Signaling (SIP-Q) to interoperate with other
Siemens HiPath systems (such as HiPath 2000, 3000 and 4000).
• A single-server configuration for the HiPath 8000 is available with Siemens' Integrated
Media Server and HiPath Assistant for the 300 to 5,000 end-user scenario. Optional
redundancy is also available.
