    G2 4.1.2 PRI E1/T1 ISDN 4.1.2.1 ISDN number plan The TANDBERG Gateway’s PRI lines may use one or more numbers for dial in. If more than one number is used, the numbers must be consecutive. 4.1.2.2 PRI Trunk Grouping When using more than one PRI line, the same properties for PRI 1 can be used for all PRI's by defining them all as a trunk group.
  • Page 8 RING RX RING TX TIP TX NOTE: TANDBERG recommends always using category 5 cabling. PRI T1 (US only): Network Service Facility (NSF) can be configured as blank/no value (i.e. NSF not used – default) or any value between 0 and 31, to describe the service facility on the PRI/T1 line.
  • Page 9: Dial In Services

    The H.323 aliases must be a portion of the ISDN number plus a prefix. Example: The TANDBERG Gateway is configured to use 4 digits of the ISDN Number, and 9 as the H.323 prefix: An endpoint dials the ISDN number 67117780 The TANDBERG Gateway transfers the call to the H.323 Alias 97780...

    ISDN number, the call is transferred through the gateway, to the remote site on ISDN. The service defines the type of call (telephone/video) and bandwidth for the connection. It is possible to define up to 20 different services on the TANDBERG Gateway. The TANDBERG Gateway have two default services: Service Prefix ‘0’...

  • Page 12: Dynamic Playout Buffering

    Ping Ping is used to see if the TANDBERG Gateway is able to reach a specific IP- address, using a mechanism in IP called ICMP. If the TANDBERG Gateway is unable to register to its gatekeeper, or if it is unable to dial a specific endpoint, one can use ping to see if there is at least an IP-route to the gatekeeper or to the endpoint.

    Range 2326—2837 4.1.5.8 IP packet sizes Audio The TANDBERG Gateway can receive up to 60 ms of audio in each packet. The TANDBERG Gateway is sending 20 ms of audio in each packet, thus: • G.711 – 160 bytes per packet •...
  • Page 14: Intelligent Packet Loss Recovery (Iplr)

    IPLR is a special algorithm developed at TANDBERG that will make efforts to reconstruct the lost packets and reduce the visual effects caused by packet losses. • If the TANDBERG Gateway experiences packet loss from an endpoint, it will ask the endpoint to handle packet loss. This requires Intelligent Packet Loss Recovery functionality on the endpoint.

    (Users will be prevented from setting up calls that exceeds this limit). Example of call weight calculation: If the TANDBERG Gateway has made 1 encrypted call at 768kbps and two unencrypted calls at 384kbps the calculation will be: 222 + 2(92) = 222 + 184 = 406 Since 406 is less than 845, this will be OK.

    *) Limited by the maximum capacity 7680 kbps, see rule II a) above. 4.1.9 Secure Conference (Encryption) The TANDBERG Gateway has built-in encryption of audio, video and data for both H.323 (based on ITU standard H.235) and H.320 (based on ITU standard H.233 and H.234).

    (and the conference is set up for encryption mode of operation). Encryption is supported for meetings up to 768 kbps and for the TANDBERG feature DuoVideo. Note: For an encrypted call, the endpoints must support encryption (AES or DES).
