Examining Host Media Processing Ruben Gary Martinez, Eicon Networks
The Wonders of HMP Why HMP? Board to Boardless Considerations
Why HMP? Processors are getting faster and more stable Arrival of reliable PSTN hosted service providers Bandwidth is widely available IT management can now support both telephony and data within one network No server hardware limitations (a host can be any machine with a reliable processor)
Board to Boardless
IP migration path for HMP Simple and Effective Call control Single telephony API that allows to send and receive calls No matter what the IP network talks H.323, H.450, SIP, T.38, etc. Powerful Media Processing Detect tones, generate tones Connect two calls, put them in conference Seamless Connectivity Native IP network, use Ethernet Hybrid TDM/IP network, use Ethernet in combination with Analog, ISDN, E1/T1
HMP Application Interfaces Via proprietary SDK Via SIP Via integrated DLL files Via TAPI
It’s All About the Application
Be Aware What other applications will be running? How will this affect my media processing? What is the upper limitation of ports per… (voice, fax, video)? Aren’t we processing media on the same network as our internet connection? Will our bandwidth suffer? What about security? What features do I need?
HMP future? DSP based processor boards Even faster host processors
