TI’s new gateway solutions are powered by its TMS320C64x+ digital signal processor (DSP) that increases performance for VoIP and video encode, decode and transcode applications. The flexible architecture of TI’s new solutions allows equipment manufacturers to transition to a common hardware and software architecture that scales from eight to several hundreds of channels while supporting advanced voice and video features, the company said.
TNETV2664, TNETV2666, TNETV2686 and TNETV2689 are the newest additions to TI’s medium density VoIP gateway product family. These solutions support an Ethernet interface and full IP encapsulation that allows the DSPs to put voice media directly on the network. This integration enables manufacturers to choose a smaller, more cost-effective host processor thereby simplifying their hardware design and reducing overall bill of material (BOM) costs.
“The power and performance of TI’s C64x DSP enables our newest family of enterprise gateway solutions to deliver improved voice transmission and high quality video,” said Fred Zimmerman, director, CPE solutions, voice solutions business unit, TI. “We are listening to our enterprise and service provider customers’ needs and equipping them with the most sophisticated voice gateway solutions that will allow them to expand their application offerings and meet the growing demands of service providers."
“As the first of TI’s medium density gateway solutions to operate on the C64x+ DSP core, manufacturers will now be able to integrate video capabilities to their products and still support voice and fax communications between TDM and packet telephony networks,” said G. Mohan, business development manager, DSP, TI India. “The improved processing power enabled by the C64x+ architecture combined with increased on-chip memory significantly improves voice gateway performance while enabling higher channel densities.” |
