3545 PRI Gateway

3545 Serial Gateway

 

 

 

 

Supported ports

 

2 PRI ISDN ports

4 serial ports

 

 

 

Supported video

H.320, H.323 (using Cisco Stack v4.0)

conferencing protocols

 

 

 

 

Supported audio codecs

The term audio transcoded video calls refers to the process whereby an

 

 

audio stream in a multimedia call can be transcoded from one codec type to

 

 

another.

 

 

 

Basic and advanced audio coding supported codecs: G.711, G.722, G.722.1,

 

 

G.723.1, G.728

 

 

 

 

Audio Transcoding

Transcoding for the 4 supported

 

 

up to 60 voice channels.

multimedia calls.

 

 

G.711 (IP) < > G.728 (ISDN) for up

 

 

 

to 20 audio transcoded video

 

 

 

channels.

 

 

 

The gateway automatically performs

 

 

 

A-Law G.711-to-µ-Law G.711

 

 

 

translation between the IP and ISDN

 

 

 

sides if needed.

 

 

 

Note When your Cisco unit

 

 

 

includes both a gateway and

 

 

 

a MCU, G.728 transcoding is

 

 

 

supported on the MCU only.
