CompactPCI VoIP board supports Linux hot-swap

Tel-Aviv, ISRAEL — (press release) — Jungo Ltd. today announced that AudioCodes, a supplier of packet voice enabling technologies and components has used Jungo's Go-HotSwap OS Extension to provide full hot-swap capabilities for its model TP-400 CompactPCI VoIP communication processor under Linux and several other operating systems.

Jungo's Go-HotSwap OS Extension allows telecom/datacom vendors to implement CompactPCI hot-swap capabilities on Linux, Solaris, Windows 2000, NT, NT-Embedded, CE, 9x, and VxWorks, where these capabilities are not natively available.

AudioCodes' TP-400 VoIP Communication Board is a high-density, CompactPCI media streaming board with capacity of 120 independent channels. The TP-400 board is powered by AudioCodes' VoIP DSP communication chips, which support industry standard codecs such as G.723.1, G.729A, G.711, and T.38, as well as AudioCodes' proprietary NetCoder along with silence suppression and state of the art echo cancellation. Voice, fax, and data traffic can be auto-detected by the board and the user can specify how to process each media type.

The Go-HotSwap OS Extension enables users to immediately add hot-swap capabilities to their existing PCI drivers or to easily develop hot-swappable drivers from scratch. The resulting code compiles and runs on all supported operating systems. Go-HotSwap also transparently supports all CompactPCI hardware, i.e. it is not dependent on the hardware configuration on which it is running or the host PCI controller it is using.
