TP-260 - 8 E1/T1 PCI VoIP Communication Blade
The TP-260 PCI VoIP communication blade, based on AudioCodes’ TPM-1100 PMC Modules, is an ideal solution for trunking gateways to the PSTN and integrated gateways for IP-PBXs and all-in-one communication servers. The TP-260 provides 256 ports for voice, fax or data implementing VoIP media gateway applications.
Deliver Feature-Rich Solutions
The TP-260 supports a broad selection of voice processing related algorithms, including G.711, G.723.1 and G.729AB Vocoders, G.168-compliant echo cancellation, T.38 Real-time Fax over IP, as well as a wide selection of In-band and Out-band tone detection and generation. The TP-260 wide selection of TDM interfaces allows easy integration with other third party CTI blades. The E1/T1/J1 PSTN interface and wide range of supported telephony protocols provides TP-260 users a higher level of integration, saving backplane slot space, enabling higher density gateway platforms while reducing the costs per channel.
Comply with Industry Standards
The TP-260 blade complies with industry standard network control protocols including MGCP, MEGACO (H.248) as well as AudioCodes’ proprietary TPNCP. These allow for the implementation of a distributed gateway architecture that separates call-processing functions from media streaming functions, resulting in better redundancy, scalability and higher system availability.
Protect Customer Investment
The TP-260 is based on the VoIPerfectTM architecture, AudioCodes’ underlying, best-of-breed, core media gateway technology for all of its products. The TP-260 supports AudioCodes’ API, which enables software download, provisioning and control. It was designed to maintain essential API backward compatibility in order to protect customers’ investment in the development of products based on former generations.
Enable Fast & Easy Integration
Enabling accelerated design cycles with low to high density and reduced costs, the TP-260 is an ideal building block for scalable, reliable VoIP solutions. With the TP-260’s comprehensive feature set, customers can quickly design a wide range of solutions for smooth migration to VoIP networks.
