Each lower-speed signal is time sliced into one high-speed transmission. voice, WANs and Internet infrastructure, is now shipping its newly-engineered A200 analog FXO/FXS PCI cards. Meeting growing global demand in the telephony space, the A200 and Sangoma's REMORA remora (rĕm`ərə), any of the several species of warmwater fishes of the family Echeneidae, characterized by an oval sucking disk on the top of the head. system together, comprise the FXO/FXS version of the company's Advanced Flexible Telecommunications (AFT) hardware designed for optimum support of analog voice traffic. "There is still a huge demand and need for FXO/FXS technologies in many countries around the world," says Sangoma Technologies President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. David Mandelstam. "Not all telephone systems require the latest VoIP technologies, but still require robust analog capabilities to maintain quality of service. We understand this need and are taking an industry lead by providing a price/performance solution that our competitors will now follow." The A200 solution supports any combination of up to 24 FXO FXO Foreign Exchange Office or FXS connections. A single PCI slot host connection for all ports ensures common synchronous clocking for all channels. The base AFT architecture is shared with Sangoma's A101, A201 and A104 and soon to be released A108 cards ensuring common 3.3V/5V, high performance PCI (1) (Payment Card Industry) See PCI DSS. (2) (Peripheral Component Interconnect) The most widely used I/O bus (peripheral bus). compatibility. In keeping with the philosophy of providing complete flexibility to all customers, the A200 has field upgradeable firmware to take advantage of hardware and software improvements as they become available. In continuing to raise the bar by providing price performance for softPBX solutions, Sangoma is shipping an optional low density HW based echo canceller for the A200 series. The A200 consists of a REMORA daughterboard A printed circuit board that plugs into another printed circuit board, which plugs into the main board (motherboard). Daughterboards, also called "mezzanine cards," augment the capabilities of the card they plug into. See mezzanine card. mounted on the AFT PCI card. The REMORA card has two sockets each of which can accept a FXO-2 or FXS-2 module. Each FXO-2 or FXS-2 module supports two FXO or FXS ports respectively. Up to five additional REMORA daughterboards can be mounted in empty slot positions beside the A200 assembly connected to the A200 by a backplane bus connector. "We have invested considerable resources to upgrade and enhance our analog cards and expect to win major contracts in the months ahead," adds Mandelstam. "The FXO or FXS cards are a new addition to our recently launched A104d that uses a common printed circuit board as a host to several daughterboard solutions including hardware-based echo cancellation, 1, 2, 4 or 8 port T1/E1, T3/E3, as well as the FXO/FXS technologies.
