Ringing Characteristics

Table A-5 Ringing Characteristics

Description
Specification

Tip/ring interfaces for each RJ-11 FXS port (SLIC)

Ring voltage

40VRMS (typical, balanced ringing only)

Ring frequency

20 Hz

Ring waveform

Trapezoidal with 1.2 to 1.6 crest factor

Ring load

1400 ohm + 40mF

Ringer equivalence number (REN)

Up to 5 REN per RJ-11 FXS port

Loop impedance

Up to 200 ohms (plus 430-ohm maximum phone DC resistance)

On-hook/off-hook characteristics

On-hook voltage (tip/ring)

-48V

Off-hook current

24 mA (nominal)

RJ-11 FXS port terminating impedance option

The ATA 187-I1 provides multiple impedance, such as 600 ohm for American SKU, 900 ohm for European SKU, 220 ohm (820 ohm || 120nF) for Australian SKU, and so on.


Software Specifications

Table A-6 Software Specifications (All Protocols) 

Description
Specification

Call progress tones

Configurable for two sets of frequencies and single set of on/off cadence

Dual-tone multifrequency (DTMF)

DTMF tone detection and generation

Fax

Fax pass-through and T.38 fax relay mode.

Enhanced fax pass-through is supported on the Cisco ATA. Success of fax transmissions up to 14.4 kbps depends on network conditions, and fax modem/fax machine tolerance to those conditions. The network must have reasonably low network jitter, network delay, and packet-loss rate.

Line-echo cancellation

Echo canceller for each port

8 ms echo length

Nonlinear echo suppression (ERL > 28 dB for frequency = 300 to 2400 Hz)

Convergence time = 250 ms

ERLE = 10 to 20 dB

Double-talk detection

Out-of-band DTMF

RFC 2833 AVT tones for SIP

Note Cannot transmit RFC 2833 and in-band signalling, simultaneously.

Configuration

DHCP (RFC 2131)

Web configuration via built-in Web server

Touch-tone phone keypad configuration with voice prompt

Basic boot configuration (RFC 1350 TFTP Profiling)

Dial plan configuration

Cisco Discovery Protocol

Quality of Service

Class-of-service (CoS) bit-tagging (802.1P)

Type-of-service (ToS) bit-tagging

Note Does not support CoS service.

Security

RC4 encryption for TFTP configuration files

Voice coder-decoders (codecs)

G.729, G.729A, G.729AB

G.711A-law

G.711µ-law

Voice features

Voice activity detection (VAD)

Comfort noise generation (CNG)

Dynamic jitter buffer (adaptive)

Voice-over-IP (VoIP) protocols

SIP (RFC 3261 bis)
