The AltiContact Manager computer telephony platform is built by

installing one or more AltiGen boards into full-size ISA/PCI slots of a

Windows 2000/Windows NT Server and then installing the associated

AltiWare software. ACM Platform chassis and AltiGen Quantum and

Triton boards may also be added and must be installed into PCI slots. See

“System Limitations” on page 2-11 for details on the number of boards you

can install on one system.

Key AltiContact Manager Characteristics

• Quantum Board - a telephony card that uses DSP technology to

provide trunks, lines, and voice processing resources.

Quantum is an ISA compatible telephony card, which is designed

around open software standards to facilitate implementation of third-

party-provided applications in addition to the AltiContact Manager-

provided applications.

The Quantum telephony board has 12 analog ports. The Quantum

board has eight (8) voice channels, so eight ports can listen to

voicemail simultaneously.
