Introducing Cisco Small Business Analog Telephone Adapters ATA Software Features 1 Feature Description Secure Calls A user (if enabled by service provider or administrator) has the option to make an outbound call secure in the sense that the audio packets in both directions are encrypted. See "Secure Call Implementation" section on page 71. Adjustable Audio Frames Per Packet This feature allows the user to set the number of audio frames contained in one RTP packet. Packets can be adjusted to contain from 1-10 audio frames. Increasing the number of packets decreases the bandwidth utilized, but it also increases delay and may affect voice quality. See the RTP Packet Size parameter found in the SIP tab in the "ATA Voice Field Reference," on page 115. DTMF The ATA device may relay DTMF digits as out-of-band events to preserve the fidelity of the digits. This can enhance the reliability of DTMF transmission required by many IVR applications such as dial-up banking and airline information. DTMF is configured in the DTMF Tx Mode parameter found in the Line tabs. See the "ATA Voice Field Reference," on page 115. Call Progress Tone Generation The ATA device has configurable call progress tones. Call progress tones are generated locally on the ATA device so an end user is advised of status (such as ringback). Parameters for each type of tone (for instance a dial tone played back to an end user) may include frequency and amplitude of each component, and cadence information. See the Regional tab in the "ATA Voice Field Reference," on page 115. Call Progress Tone Pass Through This feature allows the user to hear the call progress tones (such as ringing) that are generated from the far-end network. See the Regional tab in the "ATA Voice Field Reference," on page 115. Echo Cancellation Impedance mismatch between the telephone and the IP Telephony gateway phone port can lead to near-end echo. The ATA device has a near-end echo canceller that compensates for impedance match. The ATA device also implements an echo suppressor with comfort noise generator (CNG) so that any residual echo is not noticeable. Echo Cancellation is configured in the Regional, Line, and PSTN Line tabs. See "ATA Voice Field Reference," on page 115. Cisco Small Business ATA Administration Guide 30
