Typically, a service provider or enterprise will deploy a number of gateways sufficient to handle the projected call volume and for system redundancy. Available telephony interfaces include both analog and digital. MFR2, wink start, ISDN Integrated voice, fax and data. Media Gateways simultaneously handle voice, fax and data transmissions through universal ports, eliminating the need to dedicate ports to specific types of transmissions. A universal port can handle any type of call that comes to it, either voice, fax or data.
Universal ports are more flexible and cost-efficient than dedicating ports to specific functions.
Compliance with major telecommunications standards. Low call latency. Media Gateways have a measured latency, the lag between transmission and reception of a voice message, of approximately 100 milliseconds. Media Gateways employ the G.165 standard to provide clear, virtually echo-less voice transmission. A more complete list with detailed technical specifications can be provided upon request.
