PBX Trunking and LAN Extension over Satellite
Needs A cost effective means of trunking
multiple voice channels and LAN traffic across
expensive satellite links.
Solution RADs Vmux family is ideal for
providing voice and data connectivity to remote
locations because it uses 201 voice compression
to greatly reduce the number of T1/E1 timeslots
or IP bandwidth required to carry a given traffic
load. A single T1/E1 timeslot can carry 20 voice
circuits or 20 E1/T1 links can be carried over a
single E1/T1 connection. Alternatively, a full T1
of 24 voice channels can be transmitted over less
than 100Kbps of IP bandwidth.

Compressed Digital / Analog Voice Data for
Remote Call Centers
Needs To deliver voice circuits to remote call
centers for incoming customer service calls or
outgoing sales/marketing calls. The solution
needs to efficiently utilize expensive satellite,
leased line and/or IP bandwidth to minimize
networking costs. All PBX/ACD features, such as
predictive dialing must be transparently
supported.
Solution RADs Vmux-2100 is a scalable, compact,
1U high product that is ideal for remote call
centers because it is optimized for quality voice
trunking with 201 compression. The Vmux deploys
TDMoIP (CV) technology which is more bandwidth
efficient than VoIP - and its transparency to
signaling protocols ensures simple deployment,
faster call setup times, lower latency and higher
availability. Transparency also means that all
ACD/PBX features are supported to ensure that
call center functionality is not compromised.
4
Disaster Recovery via Mobile Contact Centers
Needs An effective disaster recovery plan that
includes a mobile contact center that provides
voice and data communications to critical
personnel when their normal place of operation is
unusable. It may also function as a communication
system to support temporary needs such as a
command and control center.
Solution RADs Vmux-2100 is ideal for mobile
contact centers because it is a scalable,
compact, 1U high product that can carry up to 20
T1/E1 voice circuits and Ethernet traffic over a
single T1/E1 link . The Vmux deploys TDMoIP (CV)
technology which is ideal for voice trunking
because its more bandwidth efficient than VoIP -
and its transparency to signaling protocols
ensures simple deployment, faster call setup
times, lower latency and higher availability.
  The Vmux product family provides economic
voice and data facilities over satellite -
providing maximum flexibility for how and where
the system can be deployed.
5
International Toll Bypass with 201 Compression
Needs To significantly reduce transmission costs
and improve utilization of international
satellite links. The solution must be optimized
for voice, but also should support Group 3 fax
relay at configurable rates and therefore support
wholesale carrier voice services.
Solution RADs Vmux-2100 is a compact, 1U high
DCME (Digital Circuit Multiplication Equipment)
solution that is ideal for international and
domestic toll-bypass. It can be configured to
compress 20 T1 or E1 voice circuits into a single
T1/E1 or IP link. The Vmux-2100 utilizes TDMoIP
(CV) technology to deliver high quality voice
with 201 voice compression, rate configurable
fax relay, modem relay and transparent support
for common signaling protocols such as SS7, ISDN
PRI and R2/MFC. Voice trunking features such as
Q.50 and COT are also supported. TDMoIP (CV)
uniquely aggregates and multiplexes multiple
voice channels into a single IP bundle to ensure
minimum overhead, bandwidth and latency.

Needs Economically serve remotely-located
customers.
Solution RAD's Vmux family makes it economical
to serve remotely-located subscribers via
satellite because it uses 201 voice compression
to minimize bandwidth usage. The Vmux connects to
Class 5 switches via standard T1/E1 interfaces.
In the remote CO, the Vmux can be deployed in a
variety of capacities ranging from 16 T1/E1
connections to multiples of FXS lines.
7
Inter-MSC Connectivity
Needs Reduce high expenses associated with
long-distance inter-MSC connectivity
Solution Inter-MSC (E channel) trunking is one
of the main contributors to the cost of running a
cellular operation. Typically, hundreds of long
haul links are used to transport traffic between
voice switches, in meshed, star or mixed network
topologies. Reducing the number of links
translates into immediate cost savings, adding
directly to the mobile operators bottom line.
Because the payload of inter-MSC transmission is
voice traffic, the simplest and easiest way to
realize this reduction is by compressing the
amount of voice traversing the network using
standard voice compression algorithms.   RADs
Vmux Compressed Voice System uses powerful
standardized voice processing technology to
compress a full E1/T1 circuit down to 100 kbps,
or 20 full E1/T1 lines and associated signaling
down to a single E1/T1 circuit over TDM or
IP/Ethernet links.

GSM Service to Remote / Rural Regions
Needs Provide cost-effective GSM backhaul over
satellite links for remotely deployed BTS sites
Solution RADs VMUX-400 family of voice
optimization gateways provide up to a 31
efficiency improvement for the backhaul of a.bis
GSM traffic.
9
Mobile Platform Connectivity
Needs Provide cost effective GSM deployment over
satellite links to mobile platforms such as
cruise ships.
Solution RADs VMUX-400 family of voice
optimization gateways provide up to a 31
efficiency improvement for the backhaul of a.bis
GSM traffic.
10
Emergency or Supplemental GSM Service
Needs Provide cost-effective GSM deployment over
satellite links for emergency service or to
rapidly add supplemental services.
Solution RADs VMUX-400 family of voice
optimization gateways provide up to a 31
efficiency improvement for the backhaul of a.bis
GSM traffic.

NBC Case Study25th Anniversary Celebration of
Pope John Paul II
Rapid voice deployment for special event
broadcasting
Needs To rapidly deploy a cost effective,
reliable and compact communications system
resilient enough to overcome minor network
interruptions and maintain toll quality voice
Solution RADs Vmux-2100 and Megaplex-2100
created an onsite remote communications network
to transparently carry LAN, fax, modem and 96
channels of voice traffic over a single T1
circuit without compromising voice quality or
data integrity.
12
Petrocom Case Study
Needs To cost-effectively deliver PRI and EM
voice, along with low and high speed data,
between British Petroleums corporate
headquarters and major offshore oil platforms.
Solution RADs Vmux-2100 and Megaplex-2100
provide all of the voice and data interfaces
required, and the Vmux-2100 compresses the voice
traffic so it is efficiently carried between
sites over an IP satellite link. The RADview NMS
and RADcare Service Program help PetroCom enforce
its SLAs.
