Los Angeles, March 5, 2000 – Commetrex announced at CT Expo Spring 2000 today the
availability of a quad-span daughterboard for its MSP-320 Media Gateway DSP board.
Slated for release in July this year, the Quad E1/T1 Daughterboard eliminates the need for
a separate network-interface board and takes the MSP-320 to quad-span densities.
Currently, the MSP-320 requires two network-interface boards connected via H.100 to handle
four T1 or E1 spans. Now, with the MSP Quad E1/T1 daughterboard the MSP-320 easily
handles four spans of media processing in one PCI slot.
Software supporting North American T1 signaling will be available in early third
quarter, 2000. Likewise, support for EuroISDN will follow in early fourth quarter.
Pricing for this hardware is less than $900 per unit.
Commetrex Corporation, known for its innovations in fax technology, has recently developed
the open-communications industry's first platform for system development that supports the
industry's two primary standards for open-system environments: the MSP Consortium M.100
software environment for media integration and the ECTF S.100 software environment for
application integration. Both products are available with the company's MSP Media
Gateway product line featuring the Texas Instruments TMS320C6000 family of DSPs. The
MSP Media Gateway products support voice, fax, high-speed data, VoIP and FoIP.
Commetrex also extends its support of the communications system developer to the
media-processing algorithm level, and is an active participant in Texas Instrument’s
Third Party Developer Network.
