Cisco Unified Videoconferencing
3545 Serial Gateway
Supported ports
2 PRI ISDN ports
4 serial ports
Supported video
conferencing protocols
H.320, H.323 (using Cisco Stack v4.0)
Supported audio codecs
The term
audio
transcoded video calls
refers to the process whereby an
audio
stream in a multimedia call can be transcoded from one codec type to
another.
Basic and advanced audio coding supported codecs: G.711, G.722, G.722.1,
G.723.1, G.728
Audio Transcoding
G.711 (ISDN) < > G.723.1 (IP) for
up to 60 voice channels.
Transcoding for the 4 supported
multimedia calls.
G.711 (IP) < > G.728 (ISDN) for up
to 20 audio transcoded video
channels.
The gateway automatically performs
A-Law G.711-to-µ-Law G.711
translation between the IP and ISDN
sides if needed.
Note
When your Cisco unit
includes both a gateway and
a MCU, G.728 transcoding is
supported on the MCU only.
