• Quantum Board - a telephony card that uses DSP technology to
provide trunks, lines, and voice processing resources.
Quantum is an ISA compatible telephony card, which is designed
around open software standards to facilitate implementation of third-
party-provided applications in addition to the AltiServ-provided
applications.
The Quantum telephony board has 12 analog ports, eight (8) of which
are voice channels, so eight ports can listen to voicemail
simultaneously.
Additional Quantum boards can be added to meet larger system
requirements. The maximum number of Quantum boards in one
system is up to 16 boards and depends on the number of ISA slots
available and the selected computer platform performance
characteristics.
Note: AltiWare OE Release 3.0 or higher does not support Quantum
Rev. C/C+ boards. Upgrade Quantum boards to Rev. D prior to
installing OE 3.0 (or higher) software.
• Triton Boards:
— Triton VoIP Board - a PCI bus telephony board that provides
voice processing resources. DSP engines reside on the VoIP board
to perform voice processing functions needed for H.323 devices.
The Triton VoIP board supports 12 or 30 IP trunk ports. See
"System Limitations" on page 2-10 for details on the number of
Triton VoIP boards and ports you can install on one system.
— Triton VoIP 12- and 30-port boards - Triton 8-port boards
running on previous OE releases are automatically upgraded to 12-
port boards with OE 4.5 and higher. The 12-port board can be
configured to a 30-port board in OE 4.5 and higher.
• 5V PCI slot is required for each Triton board.
• Additional VoIP boards, up to a maximum of ten (10) per
system, can be added to meet larger system requirements.
• The VoIP board can also be used individually as a third-party
developer application platform.
