Technical Note TN-2115a-SR
TN8271 Network Gateway Release Note v1.02.06
25 June 2013
This technical note contains information to accompany the May 2013 release of the TN8271 Network
Gateway software version 1.02.06.
1. What’s new in this release
1.1 Enhancement of the RTP transmit timing
Tait reference:
TIMS00098965
When the gateway transcoded AMBE VDP to G.711 RTP, it sent 3 RTP
packets at once. The next three were then sent approximately 60 ms later.
The gateway now buffers and times the RTP so that each packet is sent at
20 ms intervals.
