Access Device
Access Device is the hardware component used to gain access to network resources from a remote location, and vice versa. Common access devices are routers, MUX and modem pools. Integrated Access Device (IAD) is a type of access devices that can simultaneously deliver traditional PSTN voice services, packet voice services, and data services (via LAN ports) over a single WAN link. An access device aggregates multiple channels of information including voice and data across a single shared access link to a carrier or service provider PoP (Point of Presence).
