Product description
1.1 OfficeMaster Gate: ISDN-Controller and Media gateway
Through the various scenarios of use different versions of OfficeMaster Gate were developed. In this part Of -
ficeMaster Gate products are described that function as independent Gateways respectively Controllers. (Apart from
that there are versions of boards that are described later on.)
No additional software needs to be loaded into the box. All of the linux based firmware is placed in the flash drive
and loaded into the RAM for execution when booted.
Operated on a PBX (resp. Point-to-Point protocol), Office Master Gate acts similar to a PBX, meaning it sup -
ports direct inward addressing and allows automatic assigning of calls (fax, SMS, voice mail and phone) depending
on different dial through numbers.
OfficeMaster Gate complies with the specifications defined by the ITU for fax group 3. Apart from the compul -
sory transmission with 4800 and 2400 bps, 9600 resp. 7200 and 14400 resp. 12000 bps are possible too.
For fax transmission defined one and two dimensional modes of compression MH, MR and MMR as well as the
error correction mode (ECM) are supported.
Alternatively or simultaneously OfficeMaster Gate can be used as a media gateway for Microsoft Exchange UM,
OCS 2007 (incl. R2) as well as for Microsoft Lync Server 2010.
1.1.1 OfficeMaster Gate stainless steel box for Basic Rate Interface (BRI)
The BRI editions of OfficeMaster Gate run a powerful 32-bit microprocessor. No additional software needs to be
loaded into the box. All of the linux based firmware is placed in the flash drive and loaded into the RAM for execu -
tion when booted. Because of the autonomy of the system, the UM server is supported by the controller, keeping
the strain to a minimum. No settings via jumper are needed for the hardware, making installing, implementing and
if needed replacing very simple
