Press Release Summary: Telesoft Technologies releases the MPAC 3250 PCIe STM-1/OC-3 media card, the first on market with a High-Speed Optical STM-1/OC-3 Interface in a PCI-Express (PCIe) Low Profile form factor.
Press Release Body: Blandford, England, 16th June, 2008 - Telesoft Technologies today announced the MPAC 3250 PCIe STM-1/OC-3 media card, the first on market with a High-Speed Optical STM-1/OC-3 Interface in a PCI-Express (PCIe) Low Profile form factor.
The optical interface, running at 155Mbps, is able to service up to 2016 channels of media (equivalent of 63 E1s) simultaneously. This makes it ideal for telephony applications requiring a high density of media channels such as network ringtones, high-capacity IVR & Media Platforms interfacing into the telephony network.
The Gbit Ethernet Interface allows streaming of media files from/to a remote host system via RTP and is particularly useful for Media Gateway applications, while a dual E1/T1 interface allows low speed telephony connectivity such as signalling applications. PCIe has become the default interface for PC and server based systems with manufacturers like HP, Dell, SUN & IBM due to the reliability, performance and scalability of the PCIe bus. The MPAC 3250 is a low profile, single lane PCIe board {half the height and half the length of a traditional PCI board} fitting any PCIe chassis.
"With both STM-1 and IP interfaces squeezed into a low-profile PCIe card, the MPAC 3250 telephony board is a uniquely powerful media card," said Gary Barter, Telesoft Technologies. "It allows fixed, mobile and IP telephony applications to be deployed cost-effectively, using commonly available PCI Express based servers".
The MPAC 3250 telephony board can be ordered today by contacting your Telesoft Technologies sales representative.
