|
|
|
| |||||
|
| DTMF translation | The gateway supports translation between | ||||||
|
|
|
| ||||||
|
|
|
| H.245 messages (on the IP side). DTMF translation occurs for voice and | |||||
|
|
|
| video calls. | |||||
|
|
|
|
|
| ||||
|
| Dual video |
| The gateway supports H.239 | |||||
|
|
|
| DuoVideo technology. Dual video streams enable a screen to carry video | |||||
|
|
|
| images from one source while simultaneously displaying images from a | |||||
|
|
|
| second source. | |||||
|
|
|
|
| |||||
|
| Conceal caller ID | The gateway supports a conceal caller ID feature that instructs the | ||||||
|
|
|
| gatekeeper to conceal the identity of the calling endpoint on the IP or | |||||
|
|
|
| ISDN network, whether the presentation restricted feature is enabled or | |||||
|
|
|
| not. | |||||
|
|
|
|
|
| ||||
|
| H.323 fast start |
| The gateway H.323 fast start feature enables endpoints to join a voice | |||||
|
|
|
| conference in the gateway more quickly. | |||||
|
|
|
|
|
| ||||
|
| ISDN rollover |
| The gateway features ISDN rollover. In this feature, the gateway sends a | |||||
|
| (available in |
| “busy out” channel request to the PSTN switch when the current PRI | |||||
|
| Cisco Unified |
| connection is left with less than a predefined number of available B | |||||
|
| Videoconferencing 35 | channels. The PSTN switch “rolls over” to the next available gateway. | ||||||
|
| 27 PRI Gateway only) |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |||||
|
| Network Specific | The gateway provides support for Network Specific Facility Information | ||||||
|
| Facility (available in | Elements (NSF IEs) which enable system administrators to specify to | ||||||
|
| Cisco Unified |
| service providers the equipment, service, or network through which they | |||||
|
| Videoconferencing 35 | want a call routed. | ||||||
|
| 27 PRI Gateway only) |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |||||
|
| ISDN connection | The gateway responds to ISDN connection failure events, by unregistering | ||||||
|
| failure |
| from its gatekeeper. The gatekeeper is forced to send new | |||||
|
|
|
| calls through a different gateway, thus ensuring high call completion rates. | |||||
|
|
|
| The gateway | |||||
|
|
|
| restored. | |||||
|
|
|
|
|
| ||||
|
| Downspeeding |
| The gateway features downspeeding functionality. In the downspeeding | |||||
|
|
|
| feature, the gateway attempts to reconnect a disconnected video call either | |||||
|
|
|
| at a lower bandwidth or as a voice call. Downspeeding contributes to a | |||||
|
|
|
| higher percentage of call completion on the network. The gateway | |||||
|
|
|
| supports downspeeding at call setup and in | |||||
|
|
|
|
| |||||
|
| Multiple trap server | The gateway supports up to three SNMP trap servers. | ||||||
