The Alcatel-Lucent 5020 Media Gateway Controller – 8 (MGC-8), a key component of the Alcatel-Lucent
Next-Generation Network (NGN)/IP Call Server (ICS) and Session Control portfolio, offers carriers flexible and
cost-effective network renovation and IP network transformation. This product supports multiple applications,
including NGN Class 4 local, access and toll tandems, Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) Gateway Mobile
Switching Center (GMSC) and IMS Media Gateway Control Function (MGCF).
The Alcatel-Lucent 5020 MGC-8
provides the MGCF for TDM and Voice
over IP (VoIP) networks with any-to-
any switching, including TDM to TDM,
TDM to IP, and IP to IP, while delivering
a full range of local, access and toll
tandem services and protocols. Carriers
can integrate the signal transfer and
endpoint functionality in the same
chassis, or deploy a standalone
Alcatel-Lucent 5025 Voice Signaling
Gateway (VSG).
To optimize the routing of incoming
Public Switched Telephone Network
(PSTN) calls, the Alcatel-Lucent MGC-8
supports CDMA GMSC functionality.
By consolidating the network inter-
connection points and optimizing call
routing, the Alcatel-Lucent CDMA
GMSC can significantly reduce the
carrier’s capital expenditures (CAPEX)
and operational expenditures (OPEX).
The Alcatel-Lucent CDMA GMSC
simplifies network engineering,
expansion and maintenance.
The Alcatel-Lucent MGC-8 provides
IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) MGCF
functionality, acting as a seamless
bridge between the new converged
multiservice networks and the legacy
PSTN. By supporting the MGCF inside,
the Alcatel-Lucent MGC-8 offers carriers
an investment for the all-IP evolution.
The Alcatel-Lucent MGC-8 keeps the
network flexible, cost effective and easy
to maintain; it provides carrier-class
reliability, scalability and performance.
