Re: [VoiceOps] Request for Opinions: High density ATA's

2019-03-21 Thread Robert Johnson
If there is a need to manage only a single box, the first thing that 
comes to my mind is Adtran's Total Access 5000 series. The full size 
chassis has 22 slots. Fill those up with FXS cards and you're looking at 
528 FXS ports.


We have never had a use case where each FXS port didn't require it's own 
registration info, so I can't speak to if there can be a shared 
registration for the ports.


I can say, that such a thing is possible with the Adtran TA900 series 
and that the two pieces of equipment are pretty similar in regards to 
SIP/FXS capabilities.

I am looking for 24+ port density with amphenol connectors, and 
ideally some kind of rudimentary internal routing so i dont need to 
register all 24 discreet ports and can route by some header (to or 
uri) within a single registration.


Right now im looking at AudioCodes and the Sangoma Vega series. Obihai 
would be my natural choice here but don't have anything that fits my 
density requirements.


Any opinions on these or others I should consider. Anyone deploy these 
and can speak to the experience?

Re: [VoiceOps] VoIP Innovations reliability

2016-03-19 Thread Robert Johnson
Their primary SBC and DR IP are both in the same IP netblock, so whenever
the DDOS hits, both IPs are affected. The past few outages have involved
80% packet loss or so to both hosts, so some calls do make their way
through, and plenty of wierdness ensues when an INVITE makes its way
through but not the OK on the way back.

Can't wait to get our numbers ported out.

There are a number of situations in which we do just this, but in doing
so, and depending on the customers location, can price us out of the

We don't currently connect to any carrier via VoIP, all of the equipment
to transcode G.711/G.729 -> T1 Trunking is already in place.

Even in the event where we do connect to a carrier via VoIP, we'll
transcode to G.711 (or other) before passing the call off.

One of our strategies in combating QoS issues when a customer is
"off-network" is to order a dedicated 1.5/1 ADSL connection and bring it
back to our network on the ILEC's ATM network. But we quickly run out of
call capacity using G.711. Alternatively, we may order a T1, depending
on a number of items (cost, distance, others).

I'm also looking to deploy G.722, but that's another conversation.

[VoiceOps] G.729 A/B Experiences

2016-03-11 Thread Robert Johnson
Hey everyone,

I'm looking to deploy a lower-bandwidth codec, and am wondering what
everyone's experience has been with G.729, primary regarding voice
quality. Historically, we have limited our codec use to G.711.

Some test calls in the lab are showing promising results, I'm just
curious what might happen in the real-world.

Thank you for your time!!

Re: [VoiceOps] Leveraging a CLEC operating license to secure phone numbers

2015-12-15 Thread Robert Johnson
I recently jumped though a good portion of the hoops myself; I actually
found that the guys and gals at NANPA and the Pooling Administration
were really helpful. But I'll tell you the first thing they told me.

Read this document along and click through to the links. There's a lot
there and, but I feel it's worth your time to read it.

https://www.nationalnanpa.com/tools/trainGuides/Getting_Started_with_CO_Code_Assignments.pdf

With that said, Mary Lou Carey is one of the recommended contacts for
providing "Administrative Operating Company Number (AOCN)" services, and
I imagine that is a great place to start.

This may be dependent upon the Cisco router in question, but when we
deploy routers we always set the ACL to only allow SIP communications
from our SBC. - When customers provide their own, we recommend the same
settings.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Ubiquiti's UniFi WiFi line do just
that? Is there something I'm missing when a client moves closer to AP
"B" and the network dynamically hands off the connection to AP "B"?

I'm unable to reach 8002237881 / Legacy Qwest / from our switch in Bend, OR.

We're also unable to reach it from a Verizon Cell or a google voice account
