  • Page 54 A1 VoIP Requirements Is it possible to have static IP addressing? Because the maintenance of the VoIP Gateway Card is carried out from a personal computer (PC) through an IP network, the card must be assigned a static IP address. Static IP addressing must be made possible even when the DHCP feature is used.
  • Page 55 Does only a single router provide access to the IP network? In a dual network, two routers provide access to the IP network as shown in the diagram below. However, the VoIP Gateway Card cannot take the advantage of having two routers as access points to the IP network.
  • Page 56 A1 VoIP Requirements Is there only a single IP network between two ends of a call? A huge degradation in speech quality will be produced when calls are made through multiple IP networks as shown below; therefore, it is recommended that you avoid establishing a VoIP network in this fashion.

  • Page 57: A1.3 Network Devices

    Is the card located appropriately? Transmission delays can cause pauses and loss in VoIP communications. The more network devices (e.g., routers and switches) there are between the communicating cards, the larger the transmission delays, because a certain amount of delay is inevitable when packets go through each network device (hop).
