Dialogic® Vision™ VG Media Gateway
The Dialogic® Vision™ VG Media Gateway, together with the Dialogic® Vision™ VS Signaling Server, form an integrated, scalable, highly available turnkey option for delivering SIP services into legacy ISDN, CAS, and SS7 networks. This powerful combination provides a cost-effective choice for network equipment providers, system integrators, and application developers seeking to deploy flexible, IP-based enhanced services within carrier and enterprise networks.
Deploying services such as self service contact centers, voice portals, predictive dialers, call centers, and ringback tones, typically requires specialized functions for optimizing the deployment. With the Vision VG Media Gateway’s enhanced call transfer support, gateway ports can be freed as calls are transferred back to either ISDN or CAS networks, reducing the number of gateway ports required for deployment and helping lower self-service and call center deployment costs.
The Vision VG Media Gateway provides a rules based call routing engine complete with dynamic editing abilities, eliminating the need for a separate media gateway controller. The Vision VG Media Gateway’s call progress features can assist with applications such as predictive dialers by detecting voice activity.
