OCT Oxytocin stress test, see there 8304 Offers Comprehensive Solution for Cirpack's Universal Telephony Platform Octasic Inc., a fabless semiconductor vendor, today announced that Cirpack, a leading European equipment vendor for telecom operators' converged voice infrastructure, has selected Octasic's OCT8304 high-density packetization device for their Media/Signaling Gateway and SoftSwitch solution. The Cirpack Carrier-Class Media/Signaling Gateway and Class-5 SoftSwitch solution enables service providers to offer VoDSL, VoIP, VoCable, and VoWLL services as well as legacy TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) A technology that transmits multiple signals simultaneously over a single transmission path. Each lower-speed signal is time sliced into one high-speed transmission. services to residential, SOHO Soho (sōhō`, sə–), district of Westminster, London, England, known for its continental restaurants. Once a fashionable quarter, it became popular among writers and artists in the 19th cent. and enterprise customers. Next to SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) The European counterpart to SONET. See SONET. SDH - Synchronous Digital Hierarchy and copper E1 interface boards, the Cirpack Universal Platform can host VoATM and VoIP boards developed using the Octasic OCT8304 processor, which is of great benefit for service providers shifting from legacy proprietary telephony platforms networks to the open packet-telephony model. With an unprecedented 1024 channel capacity, the OCT8304 high-density packetization engine offers the highest capacity in voice packetization and aggregation on the market. Representing the third generation of Octasic VoP products successfully brought to market, this feature-rich device provides numerous interface options, supports both VoIP and VoAAL2, and has been specifically designed to interwork with standard DSPs and software. The OCT8304 is ideal for equipment providers who require solutions that offer high density, high throughput, low power consumption and high performance. "We are very pleased with the OCT8304, as it has allowed us to rapidly develop a universal telephony platform for telecom providers deploying Next Generation Networks," explains Frederic Potter, Cirpack's CTO (Chief Technical Officer) The executive responsible for the technical direction of an organization. See CIO and salary survey. & Senior VP.

About Octasic Founded in 1998, Octasic is a fabless semiconductor company A fabless semiconductor company specializes in the design and sale of hardware devices implemented on semiconductor chips. It achieves an advantage by outsourcing the fabrication of the devices to a specialized semiconductor manufacturer called a semiconductor foundry or "fab. based in Montreal, Canada that designs, markets, and supports best-in-class silicon solutions for the VoP telecommunications infrastructure market. Octasic's innovative approach involves co-processing engines that perform the key VoP functions: packetization, aggregation and mediation; compression; and echo cancellation The elimination of an echo in a two-way voice transmission. Echo is created in the telephone company's central office switch when two-wire lines from the customer are converted to four-wire lines for backbone trunks. . These specialized, high-density devices allow communications equipment providers to benefit from optimal scalability, and unmatched performance in terms of density, cost, and power consumption.
