● Starting the optiClient 130 on a PC from any location automatically logs off the office IP
phone (associated by the same phone number) and provides the same feature set and
class or service to the end-user as the office IP phone.
● After the remote user returns to the office, the IP phone will still be in the logged off state
and the user is prompted to start the phone. This will put the IP phone into a normal
operation mode until the IP phone is logged off again by an activation of the associated
optiClient 130.
4.6 Standby Gateways
The HG 3500 supports standby gateways that protect multiple gateways against failure. See
Section 4.15.2.2, “Standby Gateways” for more details.
4.7 Secondary Gateways
The HG 3500 supports secondary gateways that provide full redundancy to IP subscribers. See
Section 4.15.2.3, “Secondary Gateways” for more details.
4.8 Voice Compression
The HG 3500 integrated gateway supports standard G.711 encoding at 64Kbps. Compression
according to G.729 and G.723 is supported as well.
Of course the actual bandwidth requirements per connection depend on the added IP overhead
and various other settings (see Section 2.5.4, “Required Bandwidth per Connection”).
The on-board DSP module can process 60/120 channels of G.711, G.729 or G.723 encoding
including VAD, CNG and echo cancellation.
Wideband codecs according to G.722 are supported between optiPoint 410 /optiPoint 420 IP
phones. Note that the gateway itself does not terminate G.722 voice payload.
4.9 Voice Activity Detection (VAD)
Voice activity detection serves to save bandwidth in the IP network during pauses in speech.
Based on the knowledge that only one partner usually speaks at a time, while the other partner
listens, the bandwidth seized during a call is only really used in one direction (speaking station
-> listening station). In the other direction (listening station -> speaking station), only ambient
>
Note that the voice compression as well as the gateway functionality is performed on
DSP modules.
