3. iPECS UCP Hardware Description
3.1 iPECS Modules
3.1.1 UCP Server Module (UCP100/600/2400)
The Unified Communications Platform server modules (UCP100, UCP600 and UCP2400), which
are the “call server” for iPECS UCP, extend telephony resources and call processing to the
iPECS modules and terminals. The UCP server modules incorporate miscellaneous interfaces for
Music-On-Hold (MOH), Background Music (BGM), contact monitors for Alarm and Doorbell inputs,
and external control contacts. Also, these modules include battery back-up circuitry using a long-
life Lithium battery to maintain the real-time clock during power fail.
Each iPECS UCP server module has a 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet interface, the “LAN1” RJ-45
connector, which is the interface to the iPECS UCP call server features and functions. The
UCP600 and UCP2400 have a second 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet interface “LAN2” RJ-45
connector. The “LAN2” port is employed for redundant processor operation. For redundant
processor operation, the LAN2 ports of the main and back-up UCP are interconnected using a
standard RJ-45 cable directly or connect to a LAN port to support remote redundant servers. The
Ethernet ports incorporate auto MDI, MDIX switching, therefore, both straight and cross cables
can be used.
The UCP100 and UCP600 server modules include a VSF (Voice Store and Forward) unit for the
built-in Auto Attendant, Voice Mail and general System Announcements. The basic VSF in the
UCP100 has eight (8) channels and four (4) hours of audio storage. The UCP600 VSF has eight
(8) channels and six (6) hours of storage. Both can be increased by license installation, the
UCP100 can be expanded to 14 hours of storage, and the UCP600 can be expanded to support
16 hours of storage. Note the VSF will only support the g.711 Codec.
The UCP100 and UCP600 server modules also include VoIP Switch and DSP, and Multi-party
Conference (MCIU) channels as shown in the capacity Table 2.4.1-1. The VoIP Switch channels
act as an agent for iPECS devices handling signaling and media packets, and convert multi-cast
packets to unicast for remote and non-iPECS devices. The VoIP DSP channels are employed for
transcoding between major codecs (g.711, g.722, g.729a, and g.723.1).
The MCIU channels mix audio from several different sources for conferencing, supporting multi-
party Conference, Conference Room and Conference Group features of the iPECS UCP. The
MCIU has six (6) channels to support conferences up to six (6) parties. VoIP DSP channels can
be allocated to expand the MCIU channels available as shown in Table 2.4.1-1 to a maximum of
18 channels supporting conferences up to 18 parties. The MCIU will support multiple conferences
not exceeding the available channels (parties). For additional conference capabilities, MCIMs
may be added to the system.
