9.3.2 IP linking and trunking
The Eclipse IVC-32 cards allow directs and trunks over IP network
infrastructure. All IP trunks and directs can be compared directly to 4-wire
trunks and directs. They consist of:
• A single duplex audio channel
• A known start point and end point
Links have to be made over IP before the trunk/direct can be used.
9.3.3 Concert Users
The IVC-32 interface will allow Concert users to establish audio links with users
on the Eclipse matrix via the Concert IV-R server.
This server will provide a link over IP between Concert users and the Eclipse
matrix. Concert users cannot connect directly to the IVC-32 interface card.
Concert users communicate with Eclipse users using a soft-panel, rather than
the main Concert Client application.
This soft panel is configured using the EHX configuration software and the
configuration information is uploaded to the Concert user’s soft-panel on
connection to the matrix.
