· Configurable and scalable system : Up to 14 IP modules or any combination of IP with ISDN/X21 modules. Cards can be hot swapped for servicing or maintenance.
· ProntoNet offers fully TCP/UDP/IP connectivity via an Ethernet port.
· IP Multicast, Unicast and Multi-Unicast audio streaming transmission/reception.
· IP Compatibility: SIP/SAP/SDP/RTP/STUN protocols are supported according to the standard defined by the N/ACIP project within the EBU group.
· Prodys NAT Traversal Streaming Protocol permits router firewall pass-through with zero configuration.
· FEC (Forward Error Correction). Up to 24 different schemes are available, to fit to the desired delay and available bandwidth.
· Error Concealment mechanisms on Mpeg audio modes are supported to reduce the impact of packet losses.
· SolidStream by Prodys enables transmission of STL-grade audio quality over inexpensive IP links such as xDSL connections and 3G/4G links.
· Prodys Real time Network Analyzer to monitor critical network parameters in real time during the connection.
· Streaming advance features:
- Automatic Jitter buffer. This adjustable buffer avoids audio dropouts compensating for up to 10 seconds of jitter in the IP connection.
- Automatic synchronization adjustment with the transmitter site rate, to give a constant delay in IP communications.
- User configurable frame size, to give full flexibility when adjusting the delay and bandwidth use.
- Test tools to check the bandwidth, delay and jitter in the IP connection. This information can be used to adjust the streaming parameters and so, to obtain the best-quality in the real-time audio reception.
· X.21 interface available for transmission/reception over leased lines.
· ISDN terminal adaptor available with S/T and U interfaces.
· ISDN Compatibility: Fully compatible with all major audiocodec manufacturers, supporting the most important bonding algorithms: J52, Telos and CCS bonding.
· BackUp System: ISDN as a secondary link for IP/X21.
· Automatic detection of the encoding mode used by the remote unit.
· Independent encoding/decoding operation.
· Auxiliary data along with the encoded audio through two user configurable RS232 ports from 300 to 115200 bps.
· The Ethernet port is used for audio transmission and control. The unit can be controlled remotely from its Web Page or from ProdysControl.
· Operational monitoring through front panel leds:
o CON led: Indicates line connection status.
o FRM led: Indicates audio synchronization.
o LNK led: Indicates LAN connection.
o ACT led: Indicates LAN Tx/Rx.
o SYS led: Indicates system ready.
o A/D led: Indicates audio input selected.
· Additional LAN Management port to split audio and control data flows (optional) or to enable SolidStream over two IP links.
· Local or remotely (TCP/IP) upgrading of one or several units at once using the same utility. Factory software upgrades can be downloaded.
· Call facilities: Auto-redial, call scheduler and log systems.
· N+k Prodys Redundancy Protocol allows K backup IP codecs to provide resiliency for up to N active IP codecs.
· User Access Control to define different access restrictions in a per user basis.
· Configuration presets to define different configurations for all or some specific parameters.
· Up to four user configurable general purpose input-outputs (GPIO). Inputs can be set up to control audio inputs or reset alarms, and outputs can be configured to monitor line status, audio synchronization or alarms, among other options.
· Alarms: Real Time alarms management through SNMP traps, GPO and e-mails
· AC or DC Redundant Power Supply.
