Well ok but does this give you any feature or anything useful, apert from
being powered from the same source as the switch?

I see...
>From what I've read around, and the presentation on the Livingston website,
it should give you benefits if you have more than 1 POP, each equipped with
switch and a PM4, and offload the calls to the data network. Does this mean
I can have calls to a single number terminated at different PM4s in
different POPs, or I have tunnels or something like that between the PM4s?

Thanks, bye,
