Cyclone Microsystems’ 2900 Communications Gateways provide mission-critical computing capability to global wireless and wire-line communications providers. As a core component of our customer’s service delivery and revenue logging infrastructure, load sharing clusters of 2900s provide continuous, high availability operation with no single point of failure.

The 2900 has extensive physical interfaces to support both current IP networks as well as legacy circuit switched supporting for T1, E1. The circuit switched interfaces allow the 2900 to also be deployed in legacy SS-7 networks with support for INAP, CAP, WIN and AIN applications.

Built to stringent NEBS Level III Network Equipment standards and deployed in 170 installations worldwide, Cyclone Microsystems Communications Gateways have helped provide 600 system years of continuous operation without a single service-effecting outage.
