About Digium

Profile

Digium®, Inc., the Asterisk® Company, created and is the innovative force behind Asterisk, the most widely used open source telephony software. Since its founding in 1999 by Mark Spencer, Digium has become the open source alternative to proprietary communication providers, with offerings that cost as much as 80 percent less. Digium offers Asterisk software free to the open source community and offers Switchvox, Digium's Unified Communications solution to power a broad family of products for small, medium and large businesses. The company's product line includes a wide range of telephony hardware and software to enable resellers and customers to implement turnkey VoIP systems or to design their own custom communications solutions. At Digium, we're changing the way businesses communicate.

About Asterisk

Asterisk is the world's most popular open source telephony project. Under development since 1999, Asterisk is free, open source software that turns an ordinary computer into a feature-rich voice communications server. Asterisk makes it simple to create and deploy a wide range of telephony applications and services.

Code for Asterisk, originally written by founder and CTO, Mark Spencer of Digium, Inc., has been contributed from open source software engineers around the world. Currently boasting over two million users, Asterisk supports a wide range of TDM protocols for the handling and transmission of voice over traditional telephony interfaces, featuring VoIP packet protocols such as SIP and IAX among others. It supports U.S. and European standard signaling types used in business phone systems, allowing it to bridge between next-generation voice-data integrated networks and existing infrastructure.

The Digium cards in the TE series are high performance, cost effective, with digital telephone interfaces that support the T1 and E1 environments. The environments are selectable on a base ny card or by port. This characteristic allows the translation of the signaling between the equipment T1 and E1, and allows to connect banks of economic channels T1 with circuits E1.

Sometimes it may happen that your IP communications systemn is echoed, this can happen as a result of the waiting times that a VoIP system often has, unlike an analog system. As a result, your conversation may suffer an echo.

Although many devices already incorporate the echo canceller, Digium offers the Digium High Performance Echo Cancellation (HPEC) hardware. Echo cancellation hardware is also advantageous when handling large volumes of calls or high numbers of channels that would otherwise strain the CPU which would result in poor audio potential quality. Here are some of its features:

1. Octasic based on DSP (all modules)
2. 128 ms (1024 taps) of Cancellation of Echo through all the channels
3. G.168 of Quality of AT & T certified number that complies with algorithm
4. Non-linear Dynamic processor
5. Noise comfort generator
6. Automatic Row Search
7. Cancel Multiple Reflections
8. Double dialogue detection

The A8 Series of analog cards supports up to eight (8) connections per card in your Asterisk system. Using Digium's advanced quad-port interface modules, A8 Series cards can scale from one (1) to eight (8) ports.

The modular nature of the cards allows you to mix and match between line (FXO) and station (FXS) interfaces, giving you exactly the ports you need. The A8 Series cards are available in half-length PCI and PCI Express form factors.

Digium cards are compatible with all versions of Asterisk using the DAHDI driver framework. Asterisk and DAHDI are available for free from the Asterisk.org website. All cards include a five (5) year warranty

Using Digium's Asterisk software and standard PC hardware, one can create a telephony environment that includes all of the sophisticated features of a high-end business telephone system.

Using an industry-standard bursting, bus-mastering interface chip that is found within millions of PC systems worldwide, and Digium VoiceBus™ technology, the AEX2400 eliminates the requirement for separate channel bank and T1 interface cards, with industry-leading performance and price. The quad trunk and quad station modules are interchangeable, allowing the creation of any combination of interfaces. The optional hardware echo cancellation module provides 1024 taps (128 milliseconds) of echo cancellation for superior voice quality on both trunk and station interfaces. Scaling of this solution is accomplished by adding additional AEX2400 interface cards.
