Procinctus means “ready for battle” in Latin, and PortaSwitch Procinctus is the solution to make your VoIP network ready for the real-world challenges and accommodate your growth.

The key advantages of PortaSwitch Procinctus are:

1. High performance due to simultaneous multiprocessing (SMP) technology and distributed architecture
2. Built-in reliability and full redundancy with all business critical components clustered
3. Additional functionality to integrate with third party equipment, e.g. NexTone MSX (now Genband's S3 SBC)

PortaSwitch Procinctus Architecture

PortaSwitch Procinctus architectural design includes three main components that are tuned up to provide the highest level of performance and reliability:

1. PortaBilling100 Advanced in a special clustered configuration (with 7 servers instead of 4), optimized for the distributed simultaneous multiprocessing:
• 3 servers to form a RADIUS Billing Cluster (fully copied from the high end architecture of PortaBilling Oracularius): no service outage in case one of the servers fails
• 3 MySQL database servers:
  • Master DB
  • Standby DB for operational redundancy
  • Replica DB for data redundancy
• A web server to provide the service provisioning interface for administration as well as customer self-care pages
2. The Switching Cluster consists of 2 PortaSIP servers. Each server in this cluster can be operated simultaneously; and the clients' SIP phones may automatically switch to another available PortaSIP server in case of a service outage on one of the nodes.
3. The Media Cluster consists of 3 servers:
• PortaUM, a unified messaging platform and a media server to provide your customers with IVR, voicemail, auto-attendant and fax-to-email services
• Secondary PortaUM for redundancy or load balancing
• PortaBridge to enable your conferencing capabilities

The configuration server is a single point for efficient management and seamless update process of the whole PortaSwitch Procinctus set up. It is also used as a logging storage to remove the analytical task loads from the servers directly involved in the operational processes.
