RAD Data Introduces Compressed Voice Gateway for TDMoIP

RAD Data Communications introduced a compressed voice gateway, which compresses up to 16 E1 or T1 lines over a single E1, T1 or Ethernet uplink. Like typical VoIP systems, RAD's new Vmux-2100 supports G.723.1, G.729A and G.711 standards. The gateway also uses RAD's innovative packet-based TDM over IP (TDMoIP) technology to support even higher compression rates. While VoIP currently yields voice compression rates at the industry average of 10-12 kbps, the Vmux compresses at a rate as low as 5.3 kbps - approximately half that of VoIP. The Vmux-2100 supports a wide variety of signaling, including MFC/R2, ISDN, SS7, and any CCS signaling, as well as fax and data modem relay. In addition, it supports full back up over a second E1 or T1, and will soon offer full redundancy between WAN and LAN.
