ZEPHYR XPORT USER’S GUIDE

Phone

Places a call to a standard telephone. DSP hybrid technology prevents send audio coloration due to leakage, however the audio quality will still be only 300 to 3.3 kHz telephone quality. If the ISDN interface and line are present at the time of bootup, the call will go over ISDN. Otherwise, the call will be placed over the POTS interface.

h HOT TIP!

You can use this mode to call the on- air telephone system of any radio station, or to a telephone.

Zephyr

NOTE: This option will only be present if the optional ISDN interface is present and your unit is connected to ISDN.

Places a data call using the ISDN interface to a Zephyr Xstream at the far end. This mode is only available if the ISDN interface is present. This mode offers very high quality with very low delay, and is recommended whenever ISDN is available at the remote site where the Xport will be used.

The Zephyr mode uses AAC- LD - the far end Xstream should be set to:

Xmt = AAC- LD Mono 64, RCV = AAC- LD 64, Sample = 48 kHz.

DROP

The <DROP> key is also straightforward. Pressing <DROP> twice will drop any call active.
