Digital Networking
Using Digital Networking reduces the system’s maximum number of voice ports from 12 to 8. Customers who need Digital Networking and more than 8 voice ports should consider using an INTUITY messaging system. For more information about the INTUITY messaging system, see INTUITY Messaging Solutions.
AMIS Analog Networking
While Digital Networking uses the Digital Networking port to send messages to remote subscribers, AMIS Analog Networking uses voice ports to send messages with the Message Delivery feature. AMIS Analog Networking does not reduce the total number of voice ports available on the system, but it does place some traffic demands on the voice ports.
The DOSS configurator uses the following estimates to calculate voice port requirements for AMIS Analog Networking and Message Delivery:
■The total number of administered remote subscribers.
■The number of incoming and outgoing AMIS messages during the busiest hour of the day.
■The average length of incoming and outgoing AMIS messages.
■The number of Message Delivery messages during the busiest hour of the day.
■The average length of Message Delivery messages. The DOSS configurator assumes these messages have two standard characteristics:
—50% of the calls are unsuccessful and require a retry; these calls are successful on the retry.
—An unsuccessful call requires 60 seconds.
Voice Storage
Rather than using Lucent Technologies’ formula for determining voice storage requirements, customers may specify the amount of voice storage they require. Customers who want to use multiple language sets, however, should consider voice storage requirements for the Multilingual feature in their calculations.
Voice Storage for Announcement Sets
One MO disk comes with the DEFINITY AUDIX system for each multilingual announcement set customers purchase. The Multilingual feature allows customers to use up to nine language sets at once.
The amount of available hard disk storage determines, in part, the number of announcement sets the DEFINITY AUDIX system can hold.1
