RADVISION IMS SIP Protocol Stack:Seamless support between mobile and SIP, IMS SIP-based SIP Servers, Media servers, messaging systems, video devices, and more using RADVISION's widely-deployed IMS SIP protocol stack. The SCOPIA 3G Video Gateway supports the following IETF RFCs and drafts:

• Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) as defined in RFC 3261 and SDP as defined in RFC 2327
• RTP Payload for DTMF Digits, Telephony Tones and Telephony Signals as defined in RFC 2833
• Offer/Answer Model as defined in RFC 3264
• SIP INFO Method as defined in RFC2976
• Locating SIP server as defined in RFC3263
• HTTP/Digest Authentication as defined in RFC2617
• SIP call transfer based on IP=0 procedure
• draft-levin-mmusic-xml-media-control-02, XML Schema for Media Control, April 2003, draft-koskelainen-sdp263-02, SDP syntax for H.263 options, June 1998
• RFC 3966 - Tel-URI (replaces RFC 2806)
• RFC 4028 - Session Timers
• RFC 3398 - Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) User Part (ISUP) to Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Mapping
• Q.1912.5 translation between ISUP-SIP
• Q.1980.1/NSS Querying and setting of ISUP fields from SIP
• RFC 3325 - Privacy fields
• RFC 3326
• Softswitch/SIP Server keep-alive mechanism
• Additional IMS SIP related RFCs
  

RADVISION H.323 Protocol Stack:Being the undisputed leader in video, voice and data conferencing on packet networks, the gateway uses version 4.0 of the H.323 protocol stack.

RTSP Interface:

• Seamless connectivity between RTSP streaming servers and Web cameras
• ISMA implementation specification v1.0, profile 0
• 3GPP TS26.233 (version 5.0.0) and TS.26.234 (version 5.4.0).
• RFC 2326.

Advanced Transcoding, rate matching and size matching

• Video:
  • H.264, H.263, MPEG4
  • H.264<->H.263, H.264<->MPEG4, H.263<->MPEG4 with modular transcoding architecture
  • Rate and size matching
  • QualiVision™ Image Refresh error resiliency
  • Multi-NSRP mechanism
• Audio:
  • AMR pass-through and transcoding to G.711, G.723 and G.729.
  • Supports 2G voice TDM
  • AAC support for RTSP streaming sessions (with the MSP blade)
    

SIP Server High-Availability and Redundancy

• SIP Server keep alive mechanism - automatically identify faults and failover between SIP servers with a standard based bidirectional keep-alive mechanism
• Highly redundant solution with N+1 or N+N redundancy of the physical and logical components, taking advantage of RADVISION's IP modular architecture
• RAI/RAC Load Balancing - Resource Available Indication/Resource Available Confirmation function on H.323 networks
  

Security

• Management and media traffic separation
• Configurable management access control lists
• Secured management Web access
• Strong password enforcement
• Previous passwords tracking
• Session inactivity timeout
  

Quality of Service (QoS)

• Configurable IP TOS bits for setting any desired IP class of  service
  or DiffServ Code Point (DSCP)
  

Calls originating on 3G-324M can be routed, in addition to Direct Inward Dialing (DID) methods, with the following unique methods:

• Video-to-Voice Failover - automatic failover of IP originated calls from video call to voice TDM call based on media type not supported
• E-mail addressing - dialing from the handset an email address/SIP URI Instead of a number
• Sub-addressing (Q.932 IE) - sending from the handset both the access number as well as the destination number

Centralized Element Management Easy and intuitive control, configuration, and maintenance of VAS from a single User Interface, including:

• Complete network-wide view of element status
• Forward SNMP traps from all components to designated third party management systems
• Display of events and errors received from elements for error management
• Multiple element configuration management, multiple element software upgrade capabilities, backup and restore of configurations and s/w versions.

SS7 Signaling

• Market-proven SS7G21 signaling gateway for complete ISUP support
• Single access point to the circuit-switched network, supporting up to 2,000 calls
• Standards-based redundant solution
• Supports International and Local Protocols in Variants including: ANSI, ITU, ETSI, UK, France and more

PRI

• Supports all common central office switches utilizing the many flavors of ISDN protocols - AT&T 5ESS, 4ESS, Nortel DMS 100, National ISDN-2 (NI-2), Euro-ISDN and Hong Kong and Taiwan PRI system NTT Japan
  

Hot Swappable

• Gateway cards can be plugged and unplugged (while powered) without interference to
