Overview of the VISM and VISM-PR Cards
Voice over ATM (VoATM) using AAL2 cells—No Logical Link Control/Subnetwork Access
•
Protocol (LLC/SNAP) encapsulation.
Note
VoIP using AAL5 cells to RFC 1889.
•
Extended Superframe (ESF) framing with or without cyclic redundancy check (CRC).
•
•
Pulse code modulation (PCM) A/Mu law codecs.
•
Programmable 24, 32, 48, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128 ms tail delay near end ECAN.
•
Voice compression with the following standards:

Note
Nx64 clear channel (N = 1 only) support.
•
Voice activity detection (VAD) and comfort noise generation (CNG) using variable threshold energy
•
(Cisco proprietary).
Call agent Simple Gateway Control Protocol (SGCP) Version 1.0, 1.1, 1.5, SGCP 1.1+, 1.5, and
•
Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP) 0.1 and 1.0.
Backhauling channel associated signaling (CAS) signaling to a call agent using xGCP (backhauling
•
can be accomplished with any supported SGCP and MGCP protocol).
Backhauling Primary Rate Interface (PRI) signaling via Reliable User Datagram Protocol (RUDP)
•
to a call agent.
Common channel signaling (CCS) transport across an AAL5 trunk.
•
Fax and modem VoIP bearer transmissions.
•
•
Dual (redundant) virtual circuits across the packet network.
•
Full continuity testing (COT). Supports origination and terminating loopback and transponder COT
between VISM and the central office on the TDM side.
•
Loop timing, which can be used as the master clock for the entire MGX 8000 Series platform and
local clock.
