George Washington's army used the area for camping grounds during the Revolutionary War. , N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 3, 2002 RADVISION Expands Mobile Network Support in V(2)oIP Ensemble Development Solutions RADVISION (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on : RVSN RVSN Radvision (stock symbol) RVSN Recorded Volume Serial Number (Veritas) RVSN Raketnye Voiska Strategicheskogo Naznacheniya (Russian strategic rocket forces) ), the source of award winning, industry-standard products and technology for real-time voice and video communication over IP (V(2)oIP(TM)), today announced the general availability of its 3G-324M Toolkit. This toolkit enables the development of wireless multimedia applications and services such as videoconferencing and video streaming See streaming video and video stream. for 3G mobile phones over existing circuit-switched networks. The new toolkit complements RADVISION's existing support for mobile networks, which includes its award-winning SIP Toolkit for 3G mobile application development and the viaIP 3G-324M Gateway for bridging 3G wireless mobile videophones to IP or ISDN ISDN in full Integrated Services Digital Network Digital telecommunications network that operates over standard copper telephone wires or other media. based videoconferencing systems. RADVISION's 3G-324M toolkit enables vendors to develop and offer to service providers differentiated delay-sensitive real-time multimedia (voice, video, data) applications and services, including: -- Multimedia/video conferencing with other 3G mobile users and/or wire lined H.323 or SIP terminals; -- Custom video-on-demand (News, Sport, etc.); -- Video streaming/cell-phone TV; and -- Multimedia/multiparticipant Gaming "RADVISION's 3G-324M Toolkit enables us and other vendors of wireless applications, gateways and videostreaming services to speed our time-to-market with revenue-generating, third-generation services, including multimedia conferencing See videoconferencing and data conferencing. and surveillance, video streaming of live TV broadcasts, and video on demand," said Samuel Song chief executive officer of Anyuser.net, a leading VoIP service and application provider in South Korea. "Since the technology works with WCDMA (Wideband CDMA) A 3G high-speed digital data service provided by cellular carriers that use the TDMA or GSM technology worldwide, including AT&T (formerly Cingular) and T-Mobile in the U.S. and other 3G standards, it is a vital tool for developers as networks transition from circuits to packets." "3G-324M is the only protocol today that enables 3G service providers to leverage circuit-switched channels to deliver low-latency, high-bandwidth throughput - necessary to support delay-sensitive applications such as wireless video conferencing See videoconferencing. (communications) video conferencing - A discussion between two or more groups of people who are in different places but can see and hear each other using electronic communications. , video streaming, and multimedia gaming," said Boaz Raviv, General Manager of RADVISION's Technology Business Unit. "The introduction of our new toolkit was in direct response to the strong demand by vendors for a feature-rich 3G-324M software platform for developing multimedia applications for handsets (cell phones, PDAs, etc.), media servers and gateways. We believe our new software development platform is the most advanced, standards-based 3G-324M toolkit on the market today." The 3G-324M Toolkit provides network equipment and mobile device manufacturers the ability to improve time-to-market by simplifying and accelerating the development process for high performance, standards-based 3G-324M wireless products. Based on RADVISION's award-winning H.323 Protocol Toolkit, the 3G-324M Toolkit incorporates sophisticated call-control functionality (H.245 version 7) that allows developers to implement enhanced functionalities including advanced terminal capabilities exchange and rich conference control services such as multi-point, multi-media session handling. The 3G-324M specification was developed in the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP GPP Government Performance Project GPP General Purpose Processor GPP General Physical Preparedness GPP Gambian People's Party GPP Good Pharmacy Practice GPP Gross Primary Productivity GPP Green Procurement Program GPP Generic Packetized Protocol ) and is a collaborative agreement that brings together a number of telecommunications standards bodies Following are some of the standards bodies defined in this database. For Windows users of CDE, look up Lessons/Review/Associations. For Web users of CDE's online HTML version, review the Lessons list at the bottom of the definition. Organization Covers ANSI U.S. to define a set of globally applicable technical specifications and reports for a 3G system. By implementing 3G-324M, operators are able to increase their customer base by offer conversational multimedia 3G services over their existing circuit switched networks.
