The SDM-9300, NetPerformer from ACT Networks has the highest quality voice transmission of any FRAD router we've tested. Voice transmission, which is based on perception, can be very difficult to transmit properly over networks that are subject to delays. To master voice transmission, ACT Networks incorporates some of the most powerful algorithms known in the field, including packet segmentations, data prioritization, advanced compression, echo cancellation and background noise regeneration.

In the presence of high amounts of data traffic, the SDM-9300 performed exceptionally well in all of our tests. We especially liked its ability to be tuned to perfection, placing the priority on voice transmission, while maintaining exceptional data performance for IP data.

This FRAD router will fit into any remote office, interfacing with just about any common PBX interface, or even directly connecting POTS telephone to its ports. In addition, its strong management interface allows for simple configuration and tuning of the router, making the SDM-9300 a big winner for any remote office.
