Zoom 5565 ADSL Black wired router

5565 ZoomTel ADSL X5v, ADSL Modem, Router, Gateway, Firewall, 4-port Switch plus VoIP for voice calls over the Internet The ADSL X5v integrates a full-rate ADSL modem, router, firewall, four-port 10/100 Ethernet switch, USB port, and VoIP phone port into a single cost-effective product.

The TelePort™ feature provides a phone port that lets you use your standard single-line phone for conventional phone calls or free and very low-cost Voice Over IP (VoIP) calls. Because the X5v integrates Internet telephony with a full-featured ADSL gateway, setup is easy and system security is ensured. Integration of the voice processing with the firewall in the router ensures reliability of VoIP calls, reduces service provider support requirements, and provides a high Quality of Service (QoS) for voice calls.

The Model 5565 also come with the Global Village™ VoIP phone service that sets up in minutes and lets you simply dial phone numbers and make free calls to devices like the X5v anywhere in the world. And because the X5v uses SIP, the most standard for voice communications over the
Internet, you can tap into a rapidly-growing world of other free and very low-cost phone services.

The X5v's built-in four-port Ethernet switch eliminates the need for a separate Ethernet hub for most home networks and many small offices. The USB port allows direct connection of a fifth computer to the ADSL X5v. By adding external hubs or a wireless access point, the X5v can
provide simultaneous Internet access for up to 253 computers.

The Local Phone port of the Model 5565 includes the TelePort, an intelligent relay that allows a single phone to place and receive both VoIP calls and calls over the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). PSTN Fail-Over allows the X5v to automatically route calls over the dial-up phone network when power is lost. PSTN support also allows emergency dialing using services like 911 or 112 calling.

Setup is easy using any authorized local or remote computer's Web browser and the graphical user interface built into the X5v. After setup, the X5v voice features work even without an attached computer. Flash memory allows easy firmware updates.

Making Phone Calls Over the Internet
The X5v allows you to minimize or eliminate long distance charges while maintaining the flexibility and security of your normal phone service. A special Local Phone port lets you plug in a conventional telephone. This phone can make and receive calls just like your regular phones,
but it can also do much more!

The Model 5565 comes with Global Village phone service that sets up in minutes from your PC and lets you simply dial phone numbers to make free calls to another X5v user or to most other VoIP users anywhere in the world. You'll get a special phone number for people calling you over
the Internet. When that call comes in, your phone will ring normally.

What if you want to call someone whose phone isn't able to make or receive calls over the Internet? You have two ways to call that person. In the first way, the X5v lets you dial the call normally, and your call goes out through your local phone line to the traditional "public
switched telephone network" or PSTN. (When you want the call to go out over the Internet, you dial a # before dialing the person's phone number.) In the second way, you sign up for enhanced Global Village service or another VoIP service provider that lets your calls travel through the Internet to a special gateway and on to the PSTN.

Unlike competing products, the 5565 can be used with either the bundled Global Village service, or your own VoIP server, or be used with a number of other Internet phone services that use the industry-standard SIP protocol.
