Figure 1 Network Component Interoperability

The clouds in the diagram represent two distinct networks. The Private Network cloud interacts with the Public Network cloud through the different edge components. The RTP Media Portal provides media-layer functionality for Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP), Real-time Transport Control Protocol (RTCP), and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) transmissions.

Hardware

Description

The RTP Media Portal resides on a Motorola CPX8216T platform which is a CompactPCI (cPCI) chassis design.

The chassis provides the basic operating environment (such as power, backplane, cooling, and mounting slots) required to house cPCI-based single-board computers. The CPX8216T partitions the chassis into two separate logical operational domains (dividing the chassis shelf into two half-shelves consisting of 8-slots each).
