This would set up a gateway call between the V 35 0102 port to the H 323 endpoint with alias 55013 Note It is recommended not to use the same V 35 port for MCU calls and for GW calls because the support for incoming V 35 gateway might conflict with the MCU V 35 setup Note The gateway does only support H 320 to H 323 gateway calls There is no functionality to support gateway routing internally within H 320 protocols ISDN V 35 and LeasedLine Note It is recommended to set DTR pulse to ON in the serial v 35 configuration page for each port to be used for v 35 to h 323 GW calls February 2006 99 TANDBERG MPS User Manual 7 2 Settings Experience has shown that some features even though they are standardized might cause interoperability problems with legacy video conferencing products If you disable features on this page the gateway can be used as a filter to ensure interoperability with legacy products To configure the gateway open Gateway Configuration Settings as shown in the figure below Overview M Phonebook System Status System Configuration E Gateway Configuration MCU Configuration Dialing Rules Settings Files Gateway Settings Configuration Natural Video On Custom Video Formats On mecum Dual Stream H 239 On Encryption Transparent H320 H323 H 264 on vj Bandwidth Percentage lo Load Limit 400 Save Qa Restart SdN 9u3adadNVvL Figure 7 2 Setting

Provides considerably better video quality at lower bandwidths It has been developed with strong TANDBERG participation in joint workgroups of ITU T and ISO H 264 is based on the ISO standard MPEG 4 The TANDBERG MPS supports H 264 video compression in both CIF and SIF resolutions An encoding and decoding rate of a high quality 30 frames per second is achieved H 264 may be used on the TANDBERG MPS for endpoint up to 768kbps 8 2 3 Other Features 8 2 3 1 IP adaptive bandwidth management The MCU never produces more traffic than needed for better utilization of network resources Most of the data sent in a videoconference is video data Thus by incorporating smart video algorithms the codec sends no more video data than necessary Little movement in the picture gives low bit rate while a lot of movement gives higher bit rate The MCU regulates outgoing and incoming media bit rates by means of flow control signalling An example of this is automatic adjustment of total bandwidth used when Duo Video is opened 8 2 3 2 Asymmetrical Encoders and Decoders Realizing there are many different types of videoconferencing units in the world that do not support the same video and audio algorithms TANDBERG has implemented asymmetrical encoders and decoders This feature allows different systems with different video and audio algorithms to communicate with the TANDBERG MPS without having to settle on the best common protocols The asymmetrical nature

This feature comes also in handy when using H 323 over networks with poor QoS such as the Internet If the TANDBERG MPS detects excessive packet loss it will use Flow Control to downspeed the far end overcoming the packet loss problem Packet loss can occur when routers become overloaded and discard packets or when the receiving video system cannot keep up with the transmitting video system The TANDBERG system follows a multilevel intelligent adaptive algorithm based on measured packet loss when downspeeding on IP Different from the ISDN downspeeding the system will not change Audio and Video algorithms during the downspeeding of an IP call 8 2 3 8 Transcoding and Ratematching Audio Transcoding Each of the sites is negotiating the audio algorithm individually So in a Multipoint call we support any combination of all the supported audio codecs G 711 G 722 G 722 1 G 728 MPEG 4 AAC LD The same goes for ratematching any combination is supported 124 D13373 04 TANDBERG MPS User Manual Video All sites are divided into groups of similar coding H 261 H 263 and H 264 and rate capabilities The number of groups and their properties depends on the sites connected to the conference During a conference call group properties might change and also sites might move between groups 8 2 4 Distributed MCUs The TANDBERG MPS supports two level cascading so the TANDBERG MPS can be cascaded with other TANDBERG MPSSs
