Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2 4.1.3 Dial In Services 4.1.3.1 Direct Inwards Dialing (DID) By enabling this feature, it is possible to make a direct mapping between ISDN numbers and H323 aliases. This requires that the PRI lines connected to the TANDBERG Gateway are configured with a range of numbers. This range of numbers should be large enough to associate one ISDN number to each H.323 device that is intended to make use of the DID

Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2 4.1.3.4 Hotline When calling the Hotline number specified in the TANDBERG Gateway, the call is automatically transferred to a predefined H.323 alias. This feature can be used when an operator or helpdesk is needed. All ISDN Dial In features (DID, IVR, TCS-4 and Hotline) can be used in any combination. 4.1.4 IP Dial Out Services 4.1.4.1 Service Prefixes A Service Prefix is used when dialing f

Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2 which packets to send first and which to throw away. Some information/traffic is time critical while other is not, and classification is used to differentiate this traffic. One may set separate IP precedence for Signalling, Audio, Video and Data (values 1 – 7) as well as turn IP precedence off. The auto setting uses the following values for IP precedence: Signalling=6 Audio/Video=4 Data=3 (e.g. FEC

Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2 An example of this is automatic adjustment of total bandwidth used when DuoVideo is opened. 4.1.5.3 Dynamic playout buffering Shapes the incoming data for better playout and re-sequencing of packet delivered out of order. This ensures better lip sync. 4.1.5.4 Asymmetrical media capabilities Audio and video protocols can be fully asymmetrical. E.g., the TANDBERG Gateway can send H.263 and receive H.

Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2 4.1.5.9 Intelligent Packet Loss Recovery (IPLR) IPLR is an ITU standards based packet loss compensation for H.323 that improves received video into the TANDBERG Gateway. IPLR supports all video protocols and resolutions that TANDBERG Gateway already has implemented and is compatible with all terminals. IPLR is a special algorithm developed at TANDBERG that will make efforts to reconstruct the lost pac

Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2 Scenario: TANDBERG Gateway is connected via a CSU (i.e. a NT ‘Network Termination’) as follows: TANDBERG Gateway –cableA–CSU–cableB–Network If a CSU loses framing/sync from the network (example: a bad cable B), it shall no longer send valid framing out on cable A towards the TANDBERG Gateway. Instead it transmits "Blue Alarm". Seen from the TANDBERG Gateway receiving blue alarm, this means that the n
