"In selecting the feature set for these new MultiVOIP models we
targeted users deploying a SIP-centric network," states Chip Harleman, Vice
President of Sales and Marketing for Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. "The
MultiVOIP FX gateways connect to analog ports on telephony gear using two,
four or eight FXS or FXO interfaces, connect to an IP network using a
10/100BaseT interface, include an RS232 command port, are controlled via
web browser and are flash upgradeable. The new models support SIP for
sending and receiving voice over an IP network, T.38 real-time fax relaying
for VoIP equipment interoperability, Voice Activity Detection for silence
compression, Comfort Noise Generation for a more natural speaking
experience and utilize 5.3K bps voice compression for maximizing bandwidth.
These features packaged into our standard cabinetry make for a rugged and
feature rich product specifically designed for SIP networks requiring
cost-effective solutions."
The Session Initiated Protocol (SIP) standard, primarily developed by
the IETF SIP working group, allows for the interoperability of a large
number of devices from various vendors with those devices being easily
configured and automatically updated as necessary. The new MultiVOIP FX
gateways enable the integration of existing telephony equipment (e.g. PBXs,
telephones, fax machines, etc.) into SIP networks.
SIP-based telephony networks offer stable interoperability with a wide
range of features and flexibility. The new Multi-Tech Systems MultiVOIP FX
products fit well into such networks by being able to adapt existing
telephony equipment to evolving user requirements.
