Safety when working with electricity
WARNING
•This device contains no user serviceable parts. The
device can only be repaired by qualified service person-
nel.
•Do not open the device when the power cord is con-
nected. For systems without a power switch, and without
an external power adapter, line voltages are present
within the device when the power cord is connected.
•For AC powered devices, ensure that the power cable
used meets all applicable standards for the country in
which it is to be installed.
•For AC powered devices which have 3 conductor power
plugs (L1, L2 & GND or Hot, Neutral & Safety/Protective
Ground), the wall outlet (or socket) must have an earth
ground.
•For DC powered devices, ensure that the interconnecting
cables are rated for proper voltage, current, anticipated
temperature, flammability, and mechanical serviceability.
•WAN, LAN & PSTN ports (connections) may have hazard-
ous network voltages are present, regardless of whether
the device is powered ON or OFF. PSTN relates to inter-
faces such as telephone lines. FXS, FXO, DSL, xDSL, T1,
E1, ISDN, Voice, etc. These are known as “hazardous net-
work voltages” and to avoid electric shock use caution
when working near these ports. When disconnecting
cables for these ports, detach the far end connection of
the SmartNode first.
•Do not work on the device or connect or disconnect
cables during periods of lightning activity.
•If one has reason to open the chassis or case, then the
precautions mentioned above shall be followed. This
includes both the warnings relating to disconnection of
the input power, and the warnings relating to the discon-
nection of WAN, LAN & PSTN ports.
In accordance with the requirements of council directive 2002/96/
EC on Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE),
ensure that at end-of-life you separate this product from other
waste and scrap and deliver to the WEEE collection system in
your country for recycling.
•For devices with an external power adapter, the power
adapter shall be a listed Limited Power Source. The
mains outlet that is utilized to power the device shall be
within 10 feet (3 meters) of the device, shall be easily
accessible, and protected by a circuit breaker in compli-
ance with local regulatory requirements.

Preventing electrostatic discharge damage
When starting to install interface cards place the interface card on its shielded plastic bag if you lay it on your bench.
CAUTION
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and
impair electrical circuitry. It occurs when electronic printed circuit
cards are improperly handled and can result in complete or inter-
mittent failures. Do the following to prevent ESD:
General observations
•Clean the case with a soft slightly moist anti-static cloth
•Place the unit on a flat surface and ensure free air circulation
•Avoid exposing the unit to direct sunlight and other heat sources
•Protect the unit from moisture, vapors, and aggressive liquids
•Always follow ESD prevention procedures when removing
and replacing cards.
•Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes
good skin contact. Connect the clip to an unpainted surface
of the chassis frame to safely channel unwanted ESD volt-
ages to ground.
•To properly guard against ESD damage and shocks, the
wrist strap and cord must operate effectively. If no wrist strap
is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the
chassis.

SmartNode 4130 User Manual 1• General information
SmartNode 4130 Overview
The SmartNode 4130 series comes with 2 or 4 BRI ports and with ISDN port fallback relay (depending on
model /R) solving many VoIP network integration problems encountered in real-world installations.
If available, the PSTN line can also synchronize the gateway. For applications without a PSTN line available
the optional ISDN HP (high precision clock /HP) provides an error-free ISDN data and fax transmissions.
Like every Trinity SmartNode, the SN4130 comes with a built-in WEB Wizard for fast and easy configuration.
You can build your own Web interface using the WEB Wizard functionalities.
Figure 1. SmartNode 4130 (Front)
The SmartNode 4130 series consists of several models: see the complete SKU list on the corresponding product
page on www.patton.com.
All the SN4130, models come equipped with one 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet port and with either 2 or 4
BRI T0/S0 ports.
The SmartNode 4130 Gateway performs the following major functions:
•Eight channels of Voice over IP and local voice switching via 4 ISDN BRI S0/T0 ports. Each port can be
switched between NT and TE per software. Either port can be used as clock source. Selected models have a
Stratum 3 CO quality clock (HP) for installs where no external clock source is available.
•For each ISDN port in NT mode a Phantom power supply can be switched on. The total delivered power is
4W.
•Depending on the model, a fallback cut-through relay between ISDN BRI ports 0/0 and 0/1 electrically
connects the NT and TE port in case of power failure and enables life-line calls to the public ISDN network
(PSTN-supplied ISDN line must be used).
•Standard compliant VoIP in accordance with SIPv2 protocol.
•SIP registrar, SIP TLS, SRTP is optionally available at additional charge on all SN4130 models.
•Supports 4 SIP to SIP calls and can be license upgraded to a total of 512* (additional cost)
•USB 2.0 host port for 3G/4G modem support, which can be used for Survivability applications as a data
backup link.
-A list of supported USB Models can be found in the release notes and in the Software Configuration
Guide
-*Supported under ideal conditions. Transcoding, debugging, and/or IP routing reduce processing capacity.

SmartNode 4130 User Manual 2• Applications Overview
Introduction
Patton’s SmartNode gateway delivers the features needed for advanced voice-over-IP network applications.
They combine high quality voice-over-IP with powerful quality to build professional, secure and reliable VoIP
installations. This chapter describes typical applications the SmartNode is uniquely suited for.
Note Detailed configuration information for SmartNode applications can be
found online at:
http://www.patton.com/support/kb.asp.
Application—Edge Intelligence of Enterprise Communication
Enterprises are excited about voice over IP and convergence for the following reasons:
•Bypassing the PSTN. Using Internet telephony service providers (ITSPs) instead of incumbent carriers dra-
matically reduces telephony costs
•IP PBXs, with their full suite of features and ease of integration into existing IT environments are very
appealing
•Convergence lowers technology ownership costs and enables enterprises to deploy new integrated applica-
tions
However, there are several concerns about migrating the whole telephony infrastructure to VoIP:
•Loss of voice quality
•Unknown reliability
•Lack of experience/expertise in voice over IP
•VOIP Security concerns
Patton’s SmartNode series of VoIP gateways address these concerns enabling enterprises to safely migrate to
VoIP. SmartNodes enable system administrators to gradually introduce VoIP, using it as the edge communica-
tion device for all worlds, connecting PSTN, legacy PBX, ITSPs and an IP PBX.
