Chapter 1: Overview functions such as voice packet generation and multiplexing). You can also use an individual DSP card for this purpose. Tenor CMS is managed by a unique Command Line Interface (CLI) management system. Through the CLI, you can configure remote and local units. Just log on and configure items like chassis information, trunk groups, signaling data, etc. In addition, you can assign specific numbers to be routed over the PSTN, rather than IP. The CLI also provides a comprehen

Chapter 1: Overview If the network conditions for an IP call become unacceptable—according to the delay and packet loss specifi- cations you configure—Tenor CMS will switch the call to the PSTN automatically and transparently. The Tenor CMS continuously monitors your data network for jitter, latency and packet loss, and transparently switches customer calls to the PSTN when required. Dynamic Call Routing Tenor CMS’s intelligent call routing capabilities are state-of-the-art. The chassis automa

Chapter 1: Overview PacketSaver™ PacketSaver packet multiplexing technology reduces the amount of IP bandwidth required to support multiple calls flowing between two endpoints. PacketSaver minimizes bandwidth usage by aggregating samples from multiple VoIP conversations and packing them into a larger IP packet with a single IP header. The process removes the need to send a bulky IP header with individual voice packets. As a result, it eliminates the trans- mission of redundant information. .

If the number is configured as a local phone number, the call will be sent to a Line circuit for termination, otherwise the call is considered a “Hop-Off call” and the Tenor CMS sends it out through a Trunk circuit span, typically connected to the PSTN.
