New Zealand Telepermit Special Conditions
PTC General Warning
1. The grant of a Telepermit for any item of terminal equipment indicates only that Telecom has accepted that the
item complies with minimum conditions for connection to its network. It indicates no endorsement of the product by
Telecom, nor does it provide any sort of warranty. Above all, it provides no assurance that any item will work
correctly in all respects with another item of Telepermitted equipment of a different make or model, nor does it imply
that any product is compatible with all of Telecom's network services.
The Use of IP Networks through the PSTN
2. Internet Protocol (IP) by its nature introduces delay into speech signals as each data packet is formulated and
addressed. Telecom Access Standards recommends that
suppliers, designers and installers using this technology for calls to or from the PSTN refer to ITU E Model
requirements in the design of their networks. The overall aim is to minimise delay, distortion and other transmission
impairments, particularly for those calls involving cellular and international networks, which already suffer extensive
delay.
The Use of Voice Compression through the PSTN
3. Because of the extensive delay already experienced when calling cellular and international networks, some of
which is already caused by their use of voice
compression technologies. Telecom Access Standards will only approve G711 voice technology for use on the
PSTN. G711 is an 'Instantaneous Speech encoding
Technique' whereas G729 and all its variants are considered 'Near Instantaneous' introducing additional delay into
the speech signal.
Echo cancellation
4. Echo cancellers are not normally required in the Telecom PSTN because geographic delays are acceptable
where CPE return loss is maintained within Telepermit limits. However, those private networks making use of
Voice over IP technology are required to provide echo cancellation for all voice calls. The combined effect of audio
/ VoIP conversion delay and IP routing delay can cause the echo cancellation time of 64 mS to be required.
Modification of these Polycom Soundpoint IP 320, 330, 430, 550, 650 VoIP Telephones for the New Zealand
network
5. All samples of Polycom Soundpoint IP 320, 330, 430, 550, 650 VoIP Telephones connected to the Telecom
network shall be modified as described in KTL Test Report
Nos. 8A1680ANZ1 and 8A1680ANZ2. The modified software enables the telephones to comply with the maximum
delay requirement given in PTC220 paragraph 8.3.5. Failure to do so will cause the cancellation of this Telepermit..
