Content Filtering

Content filtering allows you to block access to Internet web sites that contain key words (that you specify) in the URL. You can also schedule when the Prestige should perform the filtering and give trusted LAN IP addresses unfiltered Internet access.

REN

A Ringer Equivalence Number is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to the telephone line. The Prestige can support three devices per telephone port.

Dynamic Jitter Buffer

The Prestige has a built-in adaptive, buffer that helps to smooth out the variations in delay (jitter) for voice traffic. This helps ensure good voice quality for your conversations.

Multiple SIP Accounts

The Prestige allows you to simultaneously use multiple voice (SIP) accounts and assign them to one or both telephone ports.

Multiple Voice Channels

The Prestige can simultaneously handle multiple voice channels (telephone calls). Additionally you can answer an incoming phone call on a VoIP account, even while someone else is using the account for a phone call.

Voice Activity Detection/Silence Suppression

Voice Activity Detection (VAD) reduces the bandwidth that a call uses by not transmitting when you are not speaking.

Comfort Noise Generation

The Prestige generates background noise to fill moments of silence when the other device in a call stops transmitting because the other party is not speaking (as total silence could easily be mistaken for a lost connection).

Echo Cancellation

The Prestige supports G.168, an ITU-T standard for eliminating the echo caused by the sound of your voice reverberating in the telephone receiver while you talk.

QoS (Quality of Service)

Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms help to provide better service on a per-flow basis. The Prestige supports Type of Service (ToS) tagging and Differentiated Services (DiffServ) tagging. This allows the Prestige to tag voice frames so they can be prioritized over the network.
