The beroNet Session Border Controller has 3 different Base Models:
Model | Session Maximum | Module Expansion Slots | Front Picture |
---|---|---|---|
BNSBC-M | 8 | 2 | |
BNSBC-L | 32 | 3 | |
BNSBC-XL | 64 | 3 |
The BNSBC-M has 2 expansion module slots and the BNSBC-L and BNSBC-XL have 3 expansion module slots. For each module, a block of 4xRJ45 connectors are installed. What kind of modules can be installed is described in the next chapter.
The back side of the SBCs are the same for all models (except that the BNSBC-L and BNSBC-XL are a bit wider compared to the BNSBC-M):
The SBC features
If you need to open the SBC in order to add/remove expansion modules, you need to detach the front panel with 4 screws and remove the top panel as shown in the picture:
You can see the 3 module slots and corresponding 3 module connectors.
All Modules that fit in the beroNet Gateway and Card can also be used in the beroNet SBC:
ISDN (high precision +- 2.5PPM): 4BRI / 2PRI (E1/T1) / 1PRI (E1/T1) / 1E1 / 2E1
Starting in 2021, the 1E1 and 2E1 modules are also equipped with a high precision clock. |
Depending on the Module different Connectors are used within the Gateway:

The following schema shows which module port is located on each connector port respectively:
The BNMO-4BRI module has 4 ISDN/BRI ports. The module can be configured individually for each port to NT (Network Termination) or TE (Terminal Equipment) mode.
In either mode the module supports Point-To-Multi-Point (PMP) or Point-To-Point (PTP). The TE/NT mode as well as the line-termination of 100 OHMs are selectable via software (jumper free).
The ISDN Ports use the following RJ45 Pins:

6 | TX- |
The BNMO-xPRI modules are available as 1 port or as 2 port variants. The modules can be configured individually for each port to NT (Network Termination) or TE (Terminal Equipment) mode. If you want to use NT-mode you may need a cross cable which is optionally available (BNE1Cross).
Line termination (120 ohm) is selectable for each port by DIP switches on the module(2 per port).
The BNMO-xPRI have are equipped with a high precision clock with +- 2.5ppm.
Starting in 2021, the 1E1 and 2E1 modules are also equipped with a high precision clock.

The BNMO-4FXS module is a 4 port FXS module for the beroNet baseboards and boxes. The BF4FXS module is used by small and medium enterprises which need internal analog FXS ports to connect analog phones, faxes and modems.

The BNMO-4FXO module is a 4 port FXO module for the beroNet mainboards and boxes. The module provides 4 FXO (Foreign Exchange Office) ports for the beroNet SBC.
It can be used to connect a SoftPBX to the PSTN as well as a traditional PSTN based PBX. It is fully compatible and can be combined with all beroNet modules, cards and boxes.

The BNMO-HYB Hybrid Module is a 2 Port BRI and 2 Port FXS Module for the beroNet Baseboards and Boxes. Each BRI port can be configured as NT (Network Termination) or TE (Terminal Equipment). In both modes, each BRI port can operate in Point-to-Multi-Point (PMP) or in Point-to Point (PTP) mode. The switching of the TE / NT mode and the deactivation of the termination resistors can easily be set in the software (Jumper Free) which makes the troublesome repositioning of jumpers unnecessary. Additionally the module provides 2 ports FXS (Foreign Exchange Station) for the beroNet Gateway. FXS interfaces are used to connect devices like analog phones or faxes to your beroNet SBC.
