MediaPacks are well suited for commercial VoIP deployment because of their mature and field-proven voice and fax technology. Their rich feature set allows integration with a wide range of Carriers and Enterprise network applications. MediaPack gateways are used by Carriers and Service Providers in Access networks for connecting Multi-Tenant Units (MTU), IP Centrex subscribers, payphones and rural users over various wireless and satellite links. Enterprises use MediaPack gateways to connect their legacy PBX systems over an IP infrastructure. In addition, in IP Centrex and central IP-PBX applications, the MediaPack increases the remote location availability and provides Stand Alone Survivability (SAS) when there is no IP connection between branch locations and the central SIP servers, SIP Proxy or central IP-PBX. _DELETE_
