Dialogic® Vision™ 1000 Video Gateway

Vision 1000 Video Gateway

Seamless connectivity between 3G-324M mobile phones and SIP phones or IP multi-media service platforms

The Dialogic® Vision™ 1000 Video Gateway is a carrier-ready video gateway that can connect interactive SIP-based video and multimedia services to mobile, IP, and PSTN networks, in addition to IMS-based networks through support of BICC/Nb-Up. The Vision 1000 Video Gateway can also support real-time video and voice transcoding, allowing service providers and mobile operators to deliver enhanced video quality and interoperability for converged services, such as video portals, multimedia contact centers, and multi-terminal video conferencing.

Because of its ability to integrate ISDN and SS7/ISUP signaling in a single 1U unit and scale up to 5000 ports per SS7 point code, the Vision 1000 Video Gateway allows for extremely efficient deployment. It features web-based management with remote configuration, management, and monitoring, and easy scalability in carrier networks by permitting capacity upgrades through software licenses. Support of redundant SS7 links improves reliability by reducing service downtime.

White Paper

  • IP Packet Exchange - Interconnecting the IP User Experience

    As the industry moves more towards full-scale IP networks, the issue of interconnecting diverse networks and different service providers - each with its own IP network(s) - becomes more important to resolve in order to support the seamless delivery of next generation services. There will be concerns for security and end-to-end quality of service (QoS) to be addressed to make sure the different “moving parts” that make up these services are delivered to the customer in the expected manner.  It will be important to set up the mechanism by which all the participants in the service delivery supply chain are compensated for the value they provide to the overall end-to-end service.

    The GSMA IP eXchange (IPX) provides a visionary approach to the challenges fixed and mobile service providers have with interworking IP-based services and networks. It provides multiple, service-aware connectivity models that provide QoS as well as cost efficient, optimal routing of IP traffic. The same platform can be extended to bridge the gap between IP and legacy TDM networks.
