NMS Communications' PCI Express Board Gives Telecom Developers More Platform Choices.New PCIe board provides highest density for application development with popular form factor SAN JOSE -- NMS See NetWare Management System. Communications today extended its flexible Open Access[TM] application development family to include the popular PCI Express (peripheral component interconnect See PCI. (hardware) Peripheral Component Interconnect - (PCI) A standard for connecting peripherals to a personal computer, designed by Intel and released around Autumn 1993. PCI is supported by most major manufacturers including Apple Computer. express) architecture. Supporting up to eight T1/E1 universal ports and up to 6,384 million instructions per second Noun 1. million instructions per second - (computer science) a unit for measuring the execution speed of a computer's CPU (but not the whole system); "4 MIPS is 4,000,000 instructions per second" MIPS (MIPS (Million Instructions Per Second) The execution speed of a computer. For example, .5 MIPS is 500,000 instructions per second; 100 MIPS is a hundred million instructions per second. ) of digital signal processing See DSP. Digital Signal Processing - (DSP) Computer manipulation of analog signals (commonly sound or image) which have been converted to digital form (sampled). , NMS's CG 6565e Series is the industry's highest density, highest power family of PCI Express media processing boards. The CG 6565e enables developers to create and deploy both traditional and next-generation applications, including conferencing, messaging, PSTN and IP call centers, VoIP gateways, PSTN and IP media servers, ringback tones, VoIP and PSTN telephony testing systems, IVR, announcements, and video gateway-video play/record. Key features include: * universal port capability that integrates PSTN interfaces, telephony protocols, comprehensive IVR functionality, full-duplex echo cancellation, speech transcoding, media resource control protocol (MRCP MRCP Member of Royal College of Physicians. MRCP abbr. Member of the Royal College of Physicians ) speech, fax processing, conferencing, and 3G video - enabling developers to support these features on a single platform; * single development environment, Natural Access, making it easy for existing NMS customers to migrate to the new PCI Express form factor, and opening the door for new customers to adopt one platform to develop multiple applications; * broad operating system support including Windows, Linux and Solaris; * scalability that enables users to buy only the number of ports (0, 1, 2, 4, or 8 T1/E1 interfaces) and digital signal processing power (1,064 to 6,384 MIPS) they need; * IP Multimedia Subsystem An integrated network for telecommunications carriers that uses the IP protocol as its foundation for packetized voice, video and data. Supporting voice over IP (VoIP) in all its flavors (SIP, H.323, MGCP, etc. (IMS (1) See IP Multimedia Subsystem. (2) (Information Management System) An early IBM hierarchical DBMS for IBM mainframes. IMS was widely implemented throughout the 1970s under MVS and continues to be used under z/OS. )-enabled, allowing developers to incorporate next-generation technologies. "The server industry is migrating quickly to the PCI Express form factor because of its speed and bandwidth advantages," said NMS Communications Vice President of Marketing Jamie Warter. "Now developers can choose the form factor that best suits their needs - whether HMP, PCI, PCI Express, CompactPCI or AdvancedTCA - from the NMS product family." Availability The initial high density configurations of the CG 6565e will be available in Q2 2008. For more information, contact NMS at 508-271-1000 and say "sales."
