Intel HMP vs. Intel Dialogic boards __________________________
Use the information in the following table to decide which approach best meets your needs. For
specific requirements for either approach, see Chapter 3, “Intel HMP Requirements” or
Chapter 4, “Intel Dialogic Telephony Hardware and Software Requirements.”
Intel HMP Intel boards
Server
requirements Requires a more powerful CPU (or dual
CPU in some circumstances) and more
memory to handle the same number ports
compared to Intel boards, since all media
processing occurs on the PC’s CPU and
memory.
For example, On a dual 3.2 Ghz Xenon PC,
Intel HMP 1.1 supports a maximum of 120
IP ports and 120 voice resources.
Also, Intel HMP can not run on every
processor or motherboard that supports the
Intel Dialogic boards. It is recommended
that you buy a PC certified for Intel HMP
from an authorized Intel distribution partner.
Supported on a wide variety of PCs.
Can support a larger number of
simultaneous calls and media processing
than Intel HMP since those functions are
performed by dedicated digital signal
processors (DSPs) on the telephony
boards.
For example, on a dual-processor 3.2 GHz
Xenon PC, Intel boards can be configured
to support over 240 IP ports and over 300
voice resources.
Trunk and
station support Only IP ports are directly supported. If you
require analog, T1, E1, or ISDN BRI
service, or need to support analog phones,
you must purchase one or more third-party
gateway devices and connect them to the
TeleVantage Server over VoIP. Digital
phones are not supported. Boards are available for use with
TeleVantage that support a wide variety of
trunks (analog, VoIP, T1, E1, and ISDN
BRI), as well as digital and analog stations.
Within one TeleVantage Server PC you can
have boards that support up to 12 T1 spans
and 720 analog stations.
Flexibility Can be a more cost-effective solution,
especially for a 100% VoIP configuration.
You only buy the resources that you need,
not the pre-packaged fixed resources
supplied by a telephony board.
A flexible licensing scheme enables you to
tailor your system to meet your specific
telephony and media-processing resource
requirements. You choose exactly the
number and type of resources that you
need.
Boards have fixed resources. To obtain the
specific resources that you require, you
may need to purchase more hardware than
you need, ending up with other board
resources that you will not use. To add
additional resources, you must install
additional boards.
Upgrades Software-only solution, facilitating
installation and upgrades. By purchasing a
different license, or upgrading your PC, you
can easily grow your system as your needs
change. Boards take up slots in the TeleVantage
Server. As your system grows, you may run
out of slots, requiring that you install and
deploy a new Server PC.
