Billing Options can be used to track the cost of Inbound and/or Outbound calls on the FXO interface. The amount to be charged in cents is entered in the Charge ( ) Cents box together with the associated time duration in the Per ( ) Seconds box. While a given call is active, the accumulated charges can then be viewed on the Call Progress dialog box. When the call ends, the charges are transferred to a Log File that can be viewed by selecting the call event in the Log Entries dialog box and selecting Details.

Dynamic Jitter Buffer defines a minimum and a maximum jitter value for voice communications. When receiving voice packets from a remote MVP120, it is possible to experience varying delays between packets due to traffic conditions on the network. This is called Jitter. To compensate for this effect, the MVP120 uses a Dynamic Jitter Buffer. The Jitter Buffer allows the MVP120 to wait for delayed voice packets by automatically adjusting the length of the Jitter Buffer between configurable minimum and maximum values. An Optimization Factor adjustment controls how quickly the length of the Jitter Buffer is increased when jitter increases on the network. The length of the jitter buffer directly effects the voice delay between MVP120 gateways.

The default minimum dynamic jitter buffer of 150 milliseconds is the minimum delay that would be acceptable over a low jitter network. The default maximum dynamic jitter buffer of 300 milliseconds is the maximum delay tolerable over a high jitter network.

The Optimization Factor determines how quickly the length of the Dynamic Jitter Buffer is changed based on actual jitter encountered on the network. Selecting the minimum value of 0 means low voice delay is desired, but increases the possibility of jitter induced voice quality problems. Selecting the maximum value of 12 means highest voice quality under jitter conditions is desired at the cost of increased voice delay.

The Optimization Factor can be configured in the range of 0 to 12 with a default setting of 7.

The Regional tab controls the voice communications for the country or region in which the MVP120 is being used.

From the Country/Region list, select the country or region for which you are configuring the MVP120. The Tone Pairs group always displays the tones used in the country or region currently selected. In addition to Australia, Central America, Chile, Europe, France, Japan, UK, and USA, there is a Custom selection (with defaults identical to USA) . Clicking the Custom button enables you to edit the Tone Pairs and establish custom sets of tone pairs for Dial Tone, Ring, and Busy on a Custom Tone Pair Settings dialog box.

The Pulse Generation Ratio group contains two ratios: the 60/40 is for the USA, and the 67/33 ratio is for international applications.

MVP120 specifications

Multi-Tech Systems MVP120 is an advanced communication device designed to enhance various applications across industries. It is a part of the Multi-Tech's MVP (MultiVoIP) product line, which is renowned for its versatility and robustness in VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) solutions. The MVP120 provides businesses with an efficient way to convert traditional analog voice signals into digital formats suitable for transmission over the Internet or other digital networks.

One of the main features of the MVP120 is its support for up to 12 voice channels. This capability allows multiple calls to be managed simultaneously, making it an ideal choice for businesses with high call volumes. The device offers a seamless integration with existing telephony systems, enabling users to retain their current infrastructure while benefiting from the added advantages of VoIP technology.

The MVP120 utilizes advanced Voice over IP protocols, including SIP (Session Initiation Protocol), which facilitates the establishment, management, and termination of voice sessions over the internet. SIP compatibility enhances interoperability with various service providers and existing communication systems, ensuring a flexible and scalable solution for businesses of all sizes.

Another noteworthy characteristic of the MVP120 is its built-in T.38 fax support. This enables the transmission of fax documents over IP networks, ensuring reliable delivery even in environments where traditional fax machines may experience disruptions. This feature is particularly beneficial for organizations that still rely on fax communication while transitioning to more modern digital systems.

Security is a primary concern in today’s digital environment, and the MVP120 addresses this with comprehensive protocol support, including SRTP (Secure Real-time Transport Protocol) and TLS (Transport Layer Security). These technologies ensure that voice communications remain secure and private, protecting sensitive information from potential threats.

The MVP120 is also designed with user-friendly management and configuration in mind. It features a web-based interface that makes it easy for administrators to set up and manage the device remotely. This simplifies the deployment process and minimizes downtime, allowing businesses to maintain operational continuity.

In essence, the Multi-Tech Systems MVP120 stands out as a powerful tool for businesses seeking to embrace the benefits of VoIP technology while maintaining reliable communication through traditional means. Its combination of voice channels, protocol support, fax capabilities, and security features make it an excellent choice for modern enterprises aiming to enhance their communication systems.
